Summary
[edit]![]() | This image needs to have its border removed. Where borders are desired they should be added with wikimarkup or code.
NOTE: Engravings, etchings, photogravures, or any image where information would be lost, or the frame is integral part of the original postcard, document etc., DO NOT NEED their borders cropped; a cropped image of this type generally will violate the original artistic intent of the image, which includes the paper surrounding it. Especially images with {{Border is intentional}} should be not overwritten. If it is desirable to have a cropped version for specific uses, this should be uploaded as a separate file, and linked back to the original. This can be requested by using {{Extract image}} instead. If the file is a photo of an artwork in perspective and with context (a physical frame, a place where the work is located etc.), use {{Extract image}} for request for a detailed image or a flat copy. Any text from the border should be included in the image description. If the border contains author and license information, this may also be embedded in the file itself and the tag, {{Metadata from image}}, should be added. If cropping a JPEG, it is generally preferable to use a lossless cropping tool. You can use CropTool on this file, which supports lossless cropping (more info). Other available tools include Cropbot and jpegtran.

DescriptionHead of a statue of a Ptolemaic King (8618263069).jpg |
Head of Ptolemaic King (Acc. 4816) Head from a limestone statue (or sphinx?) of a Ptolemaic king, possibly Ptolemy Physkon, 'the fat'. 24.1cm Ptolemaic Egypt Athribis (Wannina), Upper Egypt Bibliography W. M. Flinders Petrie, "Memphis I" (BSAE and Bernard Quaritch, London, 1909) Pg. 14 "Pl. XLV. ... The limestone headwas found at Athribis on the side of the temple built by Ptolemy Physkon; as it is that of a king, by the uraeus (broken off) and the character of it, it is doubtless from a statue of Physkon. The Ptolemaic portraits are rare in statuary, and this is apparently the only such in limestone that has survived. This is now at Manchester." PL. XLV Bottom Right, Ptolemaic Head (Acc. 9109) |
