•  Info all by me -- Jebulon (talk) 16:41, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Support This is the picture of a detail of a very rare anatomic piece of the 18th century. It shows a mummified écorché of a horse and his rider, used for anatomical research, on display at the museum of the National Veterinarian High School in Maisons-Alfort, near Paris. Made by french anatomist Honoré Fragonard ca. 1770. The mummification technics is still partially unknown. Museum picture: through a glass, neither tripod nor flash was used.-- Jebulon (talk) 16:41, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Support Very interesting, looks a bit like Plastination. --Berthold Werner (talk) 17:42, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

  •  Question Is this vote valid (50 edits) ? --Jebulon (talk) 09:45, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
  • This picture is indeed a "detail". It is a museum picture, and it is impossible to take a good enough one of the whole composition, because of the lack of distance, the glass reflections, or the back light, or the contre-jour... It was for me the only way to show this "cavalier", sorry.--Jebulon (talk) 09:52, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
    •  Comment W.S has 96 edits (currently), and his first edit is from december 21st, 2010. So yes, his vote is valid.--Snaevar (talk) 00:32, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
