- Comment It would appear that the subject of the painting is notable in the world of sports and that the painter might not be otherwise notable. She does not have an en.wiki article, at any rate. Should she? No offense to her or anyone else, but I'm not loving this as an artwork. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:09, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

- Comment This is the sort of thing which may be a good candidate for Wikipedia's FPC: it's a good quality portrait of a notable person for whom we do not have a free image, and a painting that is worthy enough to have been displayed publicly as a mural. It undoubtedly enhances the article in a meaningful way. As for Commons FPC, I don't know -- photos of paintings are typically higher resolution at FPC, for starters, and usually by notable artists. Don't know that it needs to be that way -- I'm just skeptical it'll find support. A side point, googling the subject, I do see this photo. I can't find the rest of the image, but it's similar enough that it makes me wonder if this is a COM:DW. I think we'd need to see the full other photo to make that determination, but it does look like this other portrait may have been based on a specific photo as well. Valuable work indeed, but may be problematic for Commons to host. — Rhododendrites talk | 15:55, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
