 * Oppose, limited EV. Only used in galleries. If this image had an article of its own, or was particularly important to illustrate something in an article, maybe- as is, no. J Milburn (talk) 23:25, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose As per J Milburn. With a few special cases (artist only has 1 famous painting for example), I think there should be an article dedicated to the painting itself to be considered of EV. Change to Support due to creation of article Mattximus (talk) 01:04, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose per J. For Manet, we've got dozens of images to choose from. EV needs to be there. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:45, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * 'Oh wow. **No** problem wringing an article on this. This is a charming little painting, an truly important work of the artist, a big painter's love and later wife, a lovely love story behind it and she just looks like a little nymph, come on now. Hafspajen (talk) 06:16, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Article ready -- see link above. And as for the record, I don't think there should be an article dedicated to the each and every painting itself to be considered of EV. That is just going too far. A limited EV. Only used in galleries, as Milburn said, that's correct here. But there are plenty good paintings that are used in significant ways in many articles, and it should be quite enough. This one, with only in galleries, well, OK. But when a painting is used and adds to an article that IS EV. An own article as a standard requirement  - no . We don't require that it should be an own article on photographs either.  Hafspajen (talk) 08:50, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Coment - this painting is an important painting of the artist's production. He himself thought to be one of the most important of his works. Why it not as equally well known as his other paintings is because he never sold it but keept it his entire life, and thus it was not as much potographed and published. It is depicting his wife.

 * Support Now that there is an article on the painting, EV is guaranteed. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:05, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
