Me, I'm all fired up to vote for Luca Della Robbia, who I was rooting for back in the day. GOOD CALL NORA! Then Wadsworth, who has grown on several of us, I think. Then, Lucas van Leyden, absolutely. And then... am I suffering from Domenichino fatigue? Have I voted for him and not Fra Bart at some point? Well, I'm voting for Fra Bart now!
