Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Patience

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original - A programme from the initial run of Gilbert and Sullivan's Patience, parodying aestheticism.
Reason
A rather nifty example of a programme that both captures the theme (aestheticism) and the humour in one image. A fine example of Victorian graphical art. Downside: Resolution (while within the guidelines) could be higher, but I doubt me we'll get higher anytime soon.
