Scope | Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Cathedral of Learning |
Used in | University of Pittsburgh, Cathedral of Learning |
Reason | While other well-framed images with relatively-unobstructed shots of this structure exist, this image is of substantially greater resolution and quality than the others I checked in the category.—Notyourbroom (talk) 04:25, 8 November 2009 (UTC) -- —Notyourbroom (talk) |
Review (criteria) |
Comment There is already a VI for this scope : File:Cathedral of Learning 02.jpg, so please set up a Most Valued Review if you wish to nominate this new one. --Myrabella (talk) 22:33, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Support This picture is unmatched in its framing, aesthetic value, lack of other structures confounding the frame and identification of the building, and high resolution detail. This is also the angle that, according to architectural historian Franklin Toker, best reveals its Gothic tracery, setbacks and corner pinnacles. (see p. 85 of Pittsburgh: An Urban Portrait) The value of the image for the Cathedral of Learning category, especially at the size displayed in typical Wikipedia articles, far outweighs any (minor) technical issues that may exist.
