  • Looks pretty good to me. It's technically quite good, and encyclopedic value is OK. I would prefer a slightly different crop not to cut the halo off. If you want to nominate it, I think it might stand a chance, but you need to get some more information on this particular mosaic first. I'm not sure what exactly the boundaries are between faithful copies and original works are, but since this seems like a largely faithful reproduction, you should find out the artist and the date of creation to ensure this isn't copyrighted.

  • I'd agree with the above concerns re the halo - personally I'd say it's chances at FPC would be limited if that couldn't be rectified. I'd also worry a little about the crop at the bottom, it looks a little awkward with his beard cut-off, and assume that's not what the actual mosaic looks like. --jjron (talk) 17:03, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
