Sunflowers by Vincent van Gogh
Original - A 1887 series of paintings in France, by Dutch post-impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh.
 * Reason:I believe these should be featured for the same reason The Starry Night is. The paintings are culturally iconic images, and are among the most recognizable in the history of art.

 * Comment: I thought it odd that the flower on the right was cut off; I figured that van Gogh was surely a better framer than that.  After a quick google, it seems we're missing a right hand edge, some of the top, and some from the left:, .   Mae din \talk 17:33, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Agree.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:17, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Different painting, he made several... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.194.249.90 (talk • contribs) 22:11, 15 March 2010
 * Yes, it is now a different painting, Sir Richardson changed it 2 hours ago and neglected to mention this.  Mae din \talk 22:13, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Barking up the wrong tree, check history... ;-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.194.249.90 (talk) 22:16, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Who is, me or you?  Mae din \talk 22:20, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * This is an altogether different painting uploaded by Fastilysock, SR uploaded another version of the original... Purge cache and see!
 * Ah, indeed, thanks, :) That lets Sir Richardson off the hook!  Didn't look closely enough, sorry.   Mae din \talk 22:33, 15 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment I think for such an important set of works, it would be legitimate to feature both of them, as long as they're not more cropped than what you would see in the respective (real life) galleries (and meeting our other criteria). Papa Lima Whiskey  (talk) 15:39, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I should have mentioned more sooner. All four sunflower paintings could possibly be featured as a set of pictures, per those of the United States Constitution. Sir Richardson (talk) 16:25, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Then I'm in favour of !voting on the set. Papa Lima Whiskey  (talk) 19:45, 16 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Update Nomination is now reworded and is a set of all four sunflower paintings. Sir Richardson (talk) 17:18, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Support 3rd only Now I see what the problem is - three of them are of small size. I might have been willing to forgive that one of them is 48 pixels short, but since there are two that are significantly under the bar, I can really only support the one. While I'm at it, number 1 has fairly unsightly reflections - diffuse lighting or equivalent might be better if possible. Papa Lima Whiskey  (talk) 14:29, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
