Frontispiece to The Pinafore Picture Book
Voting period ends on 29 Mar 2016  at 02:25:27 (UTC)
 * Reason:One of the most important late works by W. S. Gilbert, this expanded retelling of H.M.S. Pinafore for children teaches them such things as how one goes about singing a song to the moon (Step one: During the intermission evening, stay in your cabin composing it on your guitar...) It's a very fun read, and, while we currently lack an article on the book itself, this image is used to represent it in H.M.S. Pinafore and Gilbert and Sullivan
 * Articles in which this image appears:H.M.S. Pinafore and Gilbert and Sullivan
 * FP category for this image:WP:Featured pictures/Artwork/Literary illustrations
 * Creator:Alice B. Woodward prepared and restored by Adam Cuerden

 * Comment Too much of original white border has been cropped, I think. Brandmeistertalk  15:52, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * It's from a book and the captions are printed on separate pages; I don't think the borders don't really add any significant value here beyond needing a CSS crop. Adam Cuerden (talk) 19:29, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I think it might give a false impression about the borders to an average user (technically they are still part of the page), but wouldn't oppose on that basis. Brandmeistertalk  19:35, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * At least this is done consistently, rather than leaving two sides uncropped... — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:39, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * At least I can blame Google in that case :) Brandmeistertalk  15:22, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
