No, you can't call it this! Per our normal rules it should be "Annunciation (Sandro Botticelli)" anyway, but we already have two: Annunciation (Botticelli, Glasgow) and Cestello Annunciation (both frankly more significant paintings). I'd suggest Annunciation (Botticelli, New York) to be consistent. Johnbod (talk) 20:45, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have no objection, the title was autogenerated by the Mbabel tool. Is it better to disambiguate by city or by institution? Another possibility is to use "Barberini" in the title, but that doesn't seem to be a common name.--Pharos (talk) 20:55, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
See WP:VAMOS. Usually artist then city, at least when it is in the largest collection there, as in this case. Not everyone knows where the Met is, & the full name is long. Johnbod (talk) 01:35, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
