I've seen a Richter in real life, and it completely blew me away. Richter.

I like Richter, but I'll go with Renoir, even if all his people look the same.

The wistful emotion of the gentleman looking at the erotic statuary tweaks my heart, but... RICHTER!!!

Renoir continues his post-Rembrandt comeback bid here, besting Richter with seven votes against four. He'll take on Reni in his next match.
