  • Support as an excellent example of Whistler's work. And because I'm the one who left the beans scattered on the ground in the first place. :-) --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 14:50, 9 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. High quality scan. Clegs (talk) 08:39, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Although I really don't get the painting, I assume it's a good reproduction and has crazy good EV. From 30s of reading, it seems that this painting pretty much bankrupted him and ended his career. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 12:58, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support EV is easy given the painting has an article. JJ Harrison (talk) 08:45, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
