  • Comment When was this mosaic created? It looks like it could be a modern image (and if so a copyright violation). Mangostar (talk) 22:53, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, the artist's signature on the lower righthand corner strongly suggests it was created in 2000. I'm (regretfully) nominating this for deletion on the commons. Mangostar (talk) 22:56, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Deletion request has been completed - image has been Kept. Nomination can resume. --jjron (talk) 06:08, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose and Delete. It's still a copyright violation as far as I can tell. See my comments on the deletion discussion. Kaldari (talk) 21:26, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I won't second guess the IfD and it is quite an impressive image. gren グレン 14:41, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. The image doesn't appear particularly sharp and the crop which follows the outline of the stone border means the image loses context. Pstuart84 Talk 21:19, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
