The Infinite Art Tournament, Round FOUR: Rockwell v. Monet!


Judging from their records to date, you probably haven't cast many votes much against either one of these guys. But you only get to vote for one of them this time.



Norman Rockwell
1894 - 1978
American







Claude Monet
1840 - 1926
French
  • Skunked! Skunked Henry Moore in Round 1
  • Skunked! Skunked Fernand Léger in Round 2
  • Beat Gustave Moreau easily in Round 3.

Came in expecting to vote for Monet. Will vote for Rockwell. Won't be unhappy if either one wins.

Joining the Rockwell revolution. Go Norman!

Lawrence goes with Monet on the Facebooks.

Same as Morgan above. I was expecting to vote Monet, but, reviewing Rockwell's paintings (though I've always thought of him as an illustrator and not a fine artist), I'm won over by the humanness of his humans.

More action from FB: Ann goes for Rockwell; Grace goes for Monet!

I think both of these dudes are great. And it's kind of like voting for apples v. oranges in the Infinite Fruit Tournament...... so....... I guess a vote for Rockwell, reluctantly.

Monet for me.

It's a legit matchup, but Monet crushes it.

Susan votes for Monet.

I'm staunchly sticking with Rockwell.
