@Ikan Kekek: Well I just took a look at all the sources of the painting and the official site releases this much. Also, I could not find any criteria that image should be always full. Please inform if I am wrong..245CMR.👥📜 03:58, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment It's rather unfortunate that the signature got clipped. I am sure improved quality Varma digital will be online soon, as they are celebrated works. Damayanti is the centerpiece in a recent "Mythology and Classical Drama" segment that gives a rather detailed layout of Varma gallery. Talk by Ganesh Shivaswamy.

 Comment Yes, photographs of paintings should always show the entire painting unless they are expressly details. Moreover, this is Featured picture candidates. Featured pictures are classified as "one of the finest images" on the site. A photo of most of a painting with part of it cut off can't be one of the finest images on the site. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:52, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
