God Speed

 * Reason:I don't think there is any denying that this is an image of high quality and striking composure, the image helps to capture a very victorian view of medieval chivalry, and does so at the same time as being aesthetically pleasing. At 1,702 × 2,382 pixels should be more than sufficient from a technical point of view. And I believe that it adds encyclopedic quality to Edmund Leighton by displaying not only Leighton's perception of the medieval community, but also by providing an example of his work.

 * Articles in which this image appears:Edmund Leighton, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, courtly love, castle
 * Creator: Edmund Leighton, and uploaded by Grendelkhan.

 * Comment: I'm actually not wild about the EV in the artist's article, but I have added three other articles to the list above in which it is used- two FAs and one in which it is used in the lede. I would personally love to see more fine art FPs, and this seems like a good candidate. However, without knowing the original size of the painting, I'm not sure I can easily judge this reproduction. Also, the source link is dead. J Milburn (talk) 10:39, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Reply ah, sorry about the source link, fixed now . Kind regards, SpitfireTally-ho! 18:39, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
