The Ladder of Art -- Week #58

Cast your votes for up to four of these seven artists by Saturday, February 15.  For clarifications, consult the Ladder of Art FAQ.

It's another peculiar one!  Last week's results promote four artists onto this rung, instead of the usual three.  They run smack into Cozens, Holbein, and Canaletto, all coming off of a tie for First two weeks ago.  What's more, we've got all-conquering Daubigny, fresh off of what amounted to a three-week vacation.  And then we bring in enough new artists to get us up to seven?  No!!  We're already at eight!  That makes today's match particularly precarious: barring ties, a full half of the field will fall off the Ladder this week.

Last Week's Results

1. Chase: 8

2. Campin: 5
3. Gilman: 4
4. Boudin: 3
4. Delacroix: 3
