Oppose. - There is presently no EV for this painting. It is not of any specific person, the painting itself does not have a page, and the painting is not mentioned in any page at all. Mattximus (talk) 02:15, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Mattximus: It does have an article, see The Charging Chasseur. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 03:34, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

- Oppose – excessive manipulation, criteria 8. The blue hue on the horse's face and rear is odd. The sources show grey [1] [2]. I wouldn't oppose if a reliable source showed blue. Bammesk (talk) 02:21, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
