• Support as:
  • Already a FP at a featured picture on Wikimedia Commons (passed with 6 support, 0 oppose, 0 neutral) and on the Turkish Wikipedia
  • Nothing similar to this genre in current FPs
  • Rather strange image as it is a depiction of the great climax war of the Hindu epic Ramayana (there are only 2 Hindu epics) by a Muslim artist Sahibdin from the Mewar school of Rajput painting

Disclosure: Suggested TheMandarin the nomination on his talk. -- Redtigerxyz ^Talk 13:09, 8 January 2010 (UTC) reply

• Note: Online ref to support that Trisiras or Trisira (lit. "three-headed") battled with Hanuman as described in chapter Yuddha Khanda of Ramayana by Valmiki. There is another Trisira in Ramayana killed by child Rama in Bala Khanda [1]. Another Trisiras exists in Hindu mythology. -- Redtigerxyz ^Talk 13:31, 8 January 2010 (UTC) reply
