•  Question Is part of the bottom of the painting cropped out? If it is, we shouldn't feature this photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:21, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

• I would crop, personally, and the top too -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:10, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

• You're recommending cropping out parts of a painting? No, and perish the thought! That's OK only if you want to do a detail shot, and I seldom find those interesting, because the composition is the full work as created by the artist. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:03, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

• Perish the thought? So what do you do when a painting is framed 🖼️, clever genius 💡 :-) Basile Morin (talk) 06:14, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

• It's OK to crop out frames, except when the artist themselves deliberately painted on them. That's not this situation, except for part of the top, but there's no good way to crop that out without cropping out parts that he painted on. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:14, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

• Considering the very tiny size of the problematic portion, my opinion is this minor crop would not significantly affect the content -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:52, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
