Per feedback from Fir0002 I have created a separate article for the artist, and restored and substituted a different work by the same artist at the
history of Jamaica article. Will be contacting reviewers in case they wish to change their review. Durova273 18:46, 8 July 2009 (UTC)reply
Support – A great piece of work from Durova. Hopefully, I can get my Jamaica one done soon.

Support. A wonderful composition, nicely restored. Will this really be the first FP of Jamaica? Astounding.--

Oppose Really don't see any EV in the article/section it is used in which deals largely with the British use of African slave labour and the subsequent uprisings by the slaves - neither subject is depicted in this painting. It seems that this is only getting promoted because we don't currently have an FP from Jamaica - a very poor reason to promote --

Hm, would you accept it if the artist had a biography? And/or could replace it at History of Jamaica with a different work by the same artist, to depict the conditions of slavery at that time.
Created a biography for the artist. Durova273 20:24, 5 July 2009 (UTC)reply
Still don't really find much EV in an article about the painter unless this image is typically associated to the painter (eg the Mona Lisa for Da Vinci) or is typical of his work (cubism for Picasso). That said I suppose it has some EV in
William Berryman so I'll switch to Weak Oppose --

A definitive works standard cannot be applicable to an artist whose entire life's work went unpublished for two centuries, and whose first museum exhibition occurred in 2007. Durova273 16:06, 6 July 2009 (UTC)reply

There are classic images like this from other countries and as such this is FP material. The fact that it helps offset our existing bias is a definite boon.reply
