Reason: High quality image of an exemplary painting from a highly significant artist in Chinese history. One of my favorite paintings. I know the image is below the size requirement, but considering that the painting is 27.4 cm × 43.1 cm, I think this requirement should be waived. On my screen, the image actually comes out to be slightly larger than the actual physical painting.

Oppose - Beauty Revealed is 6.7 cm × 8 cm (2.6 in × 3.1 in) but has a resolution of 4,966 × 4,234 px resolution. Sorrow is 44.5 × 27 cm (17.5 × 10.6 in), with a resolution of 2,336 × 3,691 px. Joseph and Potiphar's Wife is 9.1 cm (3.6 in) × 11.4 cm (4.5 in), with a resolution of 4,078 × 3,266 px. More is definitely possible. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 13:16, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Am not trying to be snarky or anything but am genuinely curious, does anyone know how this got promoted considering its size? - Blorgy555 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 13:52, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - It was promoted in 2008, well before the increase in the minimum size requirements (when I first joined FPC in 2011, the minimum size was 1000 px on the short side). See the criteria as they were at the time. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 15:37, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Nice painting, but it is below the minimum resolution. If it was destroyed I would support, but since it isn't I'm sure a higher quality scan of this image is possible. Mattximus (talk) 22:49, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
