Rodin for me. I saw The Gates of Hell a long time ago. They were so impressive I turned back at once!

That said I don't think sculpture fares well in the medium of this contest, and probably the only reason I am voting so strongly for Rodin is because one day when I was a teenager I went into the Met with my friends and there was a Rodin show and I thought his sculptures were AMAZING.

Romney, Romney, and more Romney. I agree that sculpture doesn't fare especially well in this context, but... I don't think it fares all that way in many contexts. Except for public squares. Sculpture is much better than paintings in public squares.

Seems that Susan voted for Romney back in January, and I never got it entered here.

Which doesn't quite help Romney enough, as it only gets him to four votes against Rodin's six. Which means it's Rodin who will go on to face Diego Rivera in the next round.
