Reason: The Crimean War was the first war in which care for the sick and injured became a military priority. The British public became aware of the poor conditions and Florence Nightingale made her reputation instituting improvements. This image, originally published during the war, illustrates part of the problem she remedied. Restored version of File:Balaklava sick.jpg.

Support. Perhaps this also belongs on the artist's biography? There are four pictures there, two of which are featured already. Could easily replace one of the smaller ones. J Milburn (talk) 21:27, 27 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
