Well, I think it would have been more fun with a gun, as I thought it was going to be when I saw it at first with my peripheral vision.<br /><br />I dunno. Neither is really lighting my fire tonight. I'd vote Van Dongen to throw some variety into my voting, but almost everybody else has already done that, it looks like. And I'd vote for Dosso Dossi because who doesn't like some good Renaissance paintings, except that I'm just not sure about these.<br /><br />All right. My final vote is based on skimming the image pages for the artists, and it's Dosso Dossi, no contest. ("No contest" is meant figuratively, of course. I'd miss the contest if we didn't have it.)Candidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14586276874940437381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-75744334088567086552013-01-08T16:03:47.405-08:002013-01-08T16:03:47.405-08:00Well, I'll throw in a vote for Dosso Dossi, on...Well, I'll throw in a vote for Dosso Dossi, on the basis of a pretty awesome name, if nothing else (to be fair, I think I lean very slightly in that direction on the basis of the artwork as well, though it's close).PBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08873249287037659272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-61737065680336232842013-01-06T11:29:31.924-08:002013-01-06T11:29:31.924-08:00Would you accept my vote if it was for that other ...Would you accept my vote if it was for that other guy?Dosso Dossinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-31593329798990880392013-01-05T22:28:21.370-08:002013-01-05T22:28:21.370-08:00Just what we need, more rules!<b>Just what we need, more rules!</b>Michael5000https://www.blogger.com/profile/10148584819327475239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-52745182415186458212013-01-05T22:17:25.633-08:002013-01-05T22:17:25.633-08:00You'll need to add in a rule "the artists...You'll need to add in a rule "the artists themselves may not vote", or perhaps "the deceased may not vote"Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475862386179357634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-34140803605443898432013-01-05T21:15:11.665-08:002013-01-05T21:15:11.665-08:00I'm guessing that what we have with that last ...<b>I'm guessing that what we have with that last vote, dear readers, is Vice-Dork (Southern Division) Chuckdaddy attempting to make the IAT rulebook YET MORE COMPLICATED.</b>Michael5000https://www.blogger.com/profile/10148584819327475239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-89564424631768787132013-01-05T20:45:44.157-08:002013-01-05T20:45:44.157-08:00I'm not sure what you guys are thinking.
