Why the army picture ?

I have made a number of attempts at solving the problem with the image thumbnail ( the army) not currently linking to the correct image of the Pompeian mural.

I have checked the pages history and this current military image appears to have been there for a while. This suggests to me that wherever the original thumbnail was stored has replaced it with a file of the same name ? ( The army platoon ) which is causing the problem.

I have also wiki commons to no avail.

Perhaps a more experienced wikipedian can come along and rectify the error?

If a solution is found I would love to hear how it was found.

Thanks

Apelles' possible last remaining works

It is quiet possible that those very skillful wall paintings in Philipp III's tomb in Vergina are the last remaining works by Apelles. They contain an amazing high level of perspective, mimic, play with light and shade. As Philipp III (halfbrother of Alexander The Great) died in 317bC Apelles was aproximatelly 50 years old.(http://www.mathra.gr/anaskafes/3-vergina/pic5.jpg) --Christian Meißner83.171.170.29 16:49, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
