Baroque fresco by Rottmayr

 * Reason:Nice detail of Baroque fresco in Austria by its most prominent (IMHO) painter: Johann Michael Rottmayr. Rationale: One year after the last great plague epidemic in Vienna, Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI pledged to build a church for his namesake patron saint, Charles Borromeo, who was revered as a healer for plague sufferers.

 * Question. Does the real painting have all those cutoff feet (both sides and bottom)? The bits of feet and wing poking in at the top and side also look pretty weird. --jjron (talk) 09:31, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
 * As a fresco, cropping is often unavoidable. As a detail shot, I agree it could have been better cropped but it's very difficult to say what might have been intruding into the scene from this angle to prevent showing all of the feet, for example. --mikaultalk 09:44, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
