The Concert; The Happy Couple; The Merry Trio; Young Flautist

Guys, I was just going to do one, but instead it's time for a... BATTLE OF THE BANDS.

First we have: Ace of Base!

(Judith Leyster, The Concert, 1631-33)

And here's Owen Pallett and Régine Chassagne from Arcade Fire!

(Judith Leyster, The Happy Couple, 1630)

Next on the list: a washed-up Blink 182!

(Judith Leyster, The Merry Trio, 1629-31)

Grand finale... Ian Anderson, circa 1959!

(Judith Leyster, Young Flautist, c. 1630)

This is mostly a way for me to illustrate the fact that every single one of Judith Leyster's paintings ever has somebody drinking and/or playing music with the exact same really creepy smile. There are more, I just figured four would be enough for a Thursday. So who would win? You decide!!
