Cast up to four votes in the comments by Saturday morning!
9 comments:
Moholy-Nagy, Martini (love the guy annoyed at the angel talking to him), Léger, and Chase. (Sorry Cragg!)
László Moholy-Nagy, Simone Martini, Fernand Léger, and William Merritt Chase.
Moholy-Nagy, Martini, Lowry, Chase.
Moholy-Nagy, Chase, and Cragg, Vote against Leger.
Chase, Cragg, and Lowry.
Okay, this Chase rise is really something else. When will this rise stop? Ever? And how much of this is a result of a correction vs. format? Like, is he just always in everybody's top four but not necessarily their top?
Enough questions! I'll go Chase (of course), Martini, Lowry, and Gozzoli.
Martini, Leger, Gozzoli, Chase.
And regular Susan says 'VOTES -- Moholy-Nagy, Lowry, Gozzoli & Chase.'
And for me: Cragg mostly, and let's say Martini as well. I won't bother going negative on what's-his-name this week, as it would only clog things up.
