Signac. What's with that creepy baby with the schlubby 40-year-old's face in the first Sittow painting?

When in doubt, vote Estonian. I'd probably like Sittow, but the portrait in this set rubs me the wrong way. Sittow.

It's true that baby has the face of a jaded bureaucrat, but I still prefer Sittow to the cotton-candy Signac.

Candida said...

I'm feeling Signac more today.

Signac takes the Third Round, defeating Sittow by seven votes to four. Well voted, everyone!
