• Support as nominator --Pericles of Athens^Talk 17:52, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
• Conditional support. A fine image of an iconic painting. It needs more detail on the description page: medium and dimensions, current location and owner, whatever details about provenance are known, etc. --ragesoss (talk) 17:46, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

I'll see what I can do.--Pericles of Athens^Talk 17:54, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Temporarily suspended while the request is carried out. This seems to have delayed all voting on the nom. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 16:00, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, totally forgot about this (figured it would just fail like the others anyway). I added info on the medium, dimensions, current location, and other details about its dating. Is everything fine now?--Pericles of Athens^Talk 16:47, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

User:Wadester16 has convinced me that I should withdraw this nomination and create a new co-nomination that will include the other paintings found in the United States Capitol rotunda.--Pericles of Athens^Talk 05:10, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Withdrawn by nominator. --wadester16 11:52, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
