The picture has anthropological and cultural value and historic though. Alborzagros (talk) 13:56, 26 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This is true, but it requires encyclopaedic content to match. In a traditional encyclopaedia you would not see this picture unless there is something written about it. The way it stands it's illustrating an example from a photographer, buried in a gallery. Which is why I question the EV, not the historic value of the image.
