Picture??[edit]

Come on, this is an article about a painting, and there is no picture of the painting? The only picture is of a 200+ year old painting that inspired the subject of this article, and the article itself has a body text of two one-sentence sections—the introduction is longer (5 sentences). If this article was a few days old, one might be able to understand such a situation, but this article was begun six years ago. Surely Wikipedians can do better that that. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 10:59, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

An article about a picture, without a picture of the picture[edit]

Is there any point to this article? It has been around for eight years and is still at the start level with insufficient references. In particular, the article is about a painting, but there is no picture of the painting. It seems to me that the content of this article belongs with an article about the artist or a one sentence note to go with the David’s painting of Napoleon. If “a picture is worth 1000 words”, actually seeing it might tell me as much as this article.

This is the first time I have questioned whether an article should exist at all. What do you think? Humphrey Tribble (talk) 09:02, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
