Nominated by Adam Cuerden (talk) on 2010-04-08 17:01 (UTC)
Scope Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope:
High society in late 18th century London
Used in Global usage
Reason This image shows a big chunk of the famous from 18th century London - Samuel Johnson, Boswell, Oliver Goldsmith, the Prince of Wales [George IV], and many, many others, in a scene typical of the entertainments popular at the time. As such, I think this is an excellent fit for the scope. -- Adam Cuerden (talk)
Review
(criteria)

Very interesting and usefull. I love that kind of pictures. Maybe could it be mentionned in the scope that it is 1) a caricature 2) the end of the 18th century ?----Jebulon (talk) 07:53, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Scope change: added the word "late".

I narrowed down the date, since that's reasonably significant - society in the early 18th century was somewhat different than the late. I think "caricature" would be too specific to the image, which isn't allowed (and it's not like there's any photographs from the time). Adam Cuerden (talk) 14:19, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
People in the image are listed in the description. For this situation, the new gadget of image annotations seems very helpful.
Otherwise,  Support for the idea.--Ikar.us (talk) 20:12, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I'll try and get this done later today. Been working on what's probably going to be a Valued Image Set when I'm done, but there's this fold line that's very tricky to edit out. Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:05, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
