  • Oppose - I'm not seeing the EV. Van Dyck was prolific, and every one of his paintings could appear in the list. Elena Grimaldi doesn't appear to have been to prominent in her house, based on the fact that she's only listed because of the painting, and both ruff and umbrella have much better examples in the articles.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 20:34, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose – per Chris, weak EV. Bammesk (talk) 13:54, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Generally speaking, most paintings by famous articles are capable of having an article on them, and having their own article is sufficient. It's a high bar, but this is the sort of paiting that needs to clear it. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.2% of all FPs. Currently celebrating his 600th FP! 14:03, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agreed. Unfortunately, as of this nomination the work does not have its own article. If the painting qua painting had its own article, EV would be a non-issue.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 15:20, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Aye. But it's more useful to give a way forwards than to just say the blockers, y'know? Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.2% of all FPs. Currently celebrating his 600th FP! 23:21, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • You're entirely correct, and I'm a bit sheepish that I just made that point elsewhere and neglected to do it here.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 11:31, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
