...and Paul, my taste agrees with yours if you have placed the works in order of preference. I like the Zuckerman-Hartung best and I'm fighting with myself between the Owens and the Humphries for second. but the bottom line is they are all damn interesting paintings. Of course, in the flesh things always change...
