Oppose for the time being, but only in terms of timing. Support in general as it is a quality image, but in terms of "front page", we have recently featured two pictures by Gustave Caillebotte, who is one of the lesser-known Impressionists, and I think that it is time we looked elsewhere for a "great" artwork. Particularly as this image is covered, today, in DYK. Amandajm (talk) 01:58, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - If this is successful, this will run (probably) around September 2015. The current queue is about a year and a half. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:59, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Does the current queue include any Asian birds? Sca (talk) 14:41, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Queue here being shorthand for "all promoted FPs to this point which have yet to run on the MP", it probably includes both literal and figurative Asian birds, as well as bugs, and flowers, and warships, and paintings... — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:45, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for you response! We need a few more great artworks in the meantime. I will look at the queue. Amandajm (talk) 02:34, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the upcoming 2D artworks are in Wikipedia:Featured pictures/Artwork/Literary illustrations and Wikipedia:Featured pictures/Artwork/Paintings. What I'd really like to have are more FPs of statues and sculptures... we don't have very many yet. The most recent promotion in that category was in November 2013, and the one before that was in October 2012 (!). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:40, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Question Since when was timing/TFP a criterion for judging the quality of an image? 129.234.114.138 (talk) 12:29, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, completely with you here. We don't worry about front page issues. We just judge on the criteria up there ^^. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 04:55, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Seems to be an excellent reproduction; I'm not worried about overrepresentation, as this picture can stand on its own in its own article. J Milburn (talk) 10:43, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support but, just so we're clear, my butts got to FP first, so there! =P Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 03:49, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
