 * Comment at 66 pixels per inch it's not super high resolution here... Also another similar panting by the artist on Google Art Project shows quite a bit darker colors, File:Lucas Cranach the Elder - The Stag Hunt of the Elector Frederic the Wise (1463-1525) of Saxony - Google Art Project.jpg... donno, it's good art for the period, but I'm more inclined to like the Google Art painting due to size, and reject this one on size grounds... Primary EV here I think is for the artist, and out of all the available paintings from him not sure this best represents his style... we have all the ones from the Google Art project uploaded on Commons now I think...  —  raeky  t  22:36, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
 * That's not actually the same painting. Look at the trees at the top, or the castle in the upper right. I thinkt his is clearly the best of the images in his article currently, but I'm quite happy to withdraw if someone wants to change the images in the article to better ones, then nominate one of their selection. =) Adam Cuerden (talk) 23:07, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
 * In the opening paragraph it say's he's well known for his portraits and religious paintings, so one of those probably would be better EV then a hunting scene. There's several to choose from.. — raeky  t  05:14, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
 * On a side note, we recently got all of the tens of thousands of new Google Art images uploaded, so there is a potential HUGE flood of FPC's in art that could be done, and I wouldn't oppose to doing so, art is good. ;-) — raeky  t  05:21, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
