Comment - I believe another scan of this was nominated before. Might be worth checking to see if there are any outstanding concerns there. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:48, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is the other nom: it was of a different picture held by a different gallery and uploaded by a different editor. As the opposes in the other nom were based on the colours, which were deemed to be muted, I'm not sure that applies here, as the colours here are rich and vibrant. - SchroCat (talk) 13:10, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Support – Because it's famous (as is so much of VanG's oeuvre). (According to Bedroom in Arles, this is the third version, from late September 1889, six months before the artist's death. Colors in the second version look a bit brighter to me.) However, I remain dubious about the number of Van Goghs promoted here. Sca (talk) 14:56, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- I think it's interesting to note that, of all current FPCs, this is the only van Gogh. Yes, we've got a lot by him, but we've also got a lot by da Vinci and Michelangelo. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:54, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
