Ooh, an honorable and noble deer has been added to the mix! What's next? A hippopatomus with his head held up just so? A frog looking off into the distance? Not that I dislike Landseer, but an easy vote for La Tour.

Wow, this match contains all the raw ingredients for some kick-ass poker-playing dogs! I am fine with Landseer's majestic animals, especially the Bovine Family, but I definitely joining the crowd for Georges de la Tour.

I'll go for the Magdeline with her head held up just so, looking off into the mirror, over the animal farm.

It's a tough day for the animals, as de la Tour rides to easy victory, 11 votes to 1! Thanks for your votes!
