That first Cole is allegorically trippy as hell, but I am going to vote for Landseer and his noble stag.

Cole!

Hmmm, two very accomplished artists I kind of fail to love. Landseer is like the Bougereau of animal portraiture. I'll go with Thomas Cole, who's maybe the Bougereau of breathtaking landscapes.
One for Cole from Mariah on the FB syndication.

Cole me. Cole me anytime.
An emailed Cole vote from Susan.
Cole - unenthusiastically.
OK, Cole for me.
Landseer
And Cole wins this one easily, 10 votes to 3, setting up that most thrilling of IAT scenarios: the Grudge Match. See you Thursday!
