Revision as of 05:06, 29 January 2009
- Reason
- Aftermath of the Wounded Knee Massacre with several bodies in the foreground. Appearance of grain is partly due to paper texture of the albumen print. Restored version of File:Wounded Knee aftermath.jpg.
- Articles this image appears in
- Wounded Knee Massacre
- Creator
- Trager & Kuhn, Chadron, Nebr.
- Support as nominator --DurovaCharge! 02:24, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose I don't see the subject well. It took me a while to distinguish the bodies, especially since it is black and white. I think I would prefer this image to be VP. Consider nominating this at Valued Pictures, which may definitly be promoted if it meets the criteria. ZooFari 02:34, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose As above, hard to distinguish the lumpy blankets as dead bodies. Sasata (talk) 03:41, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- Support per nom. A rare image and the fact that that it may take the viewer a bit of looking to distinguish the bodies in a photograph shot in such high contrast conditions so long ago is not a problem. Images don't have to to be easy to completely interpret at a glance to be powerful and evocative. Mfield (talk) 17:58, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- Support many people have romantic visions about cowboys and indians, kids play with their toys like I did. The cruelty of how it was is captured in material like this. This shows a reality that people rather forget. GerardM (talk) 20:23, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- Support: At last, a picture that is really worth "a thousand words." Support all the way.-- Myosotis Scorpioides 20:33, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
