this is a cropped image... there is a depiction of a person burning to death in a house to the right which has been clipped out, i will look for a more accurate version, or if somebody else could, that would be great. why have the image if a quarter of it is missing.

[edit] Fair-use rationale of Guernica for the article Suffering

The article Suffering covers the whole range of all possible sufferings. Guernica has this unique quality of depicting subtile and conspicuous mental and physical suffering in humans and animals. Thus, the painting illustrates the abstract concept of suffering like no other image can do, especially for the visually inclined readers. --Robert Daoust 20:20, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

No other painting in the history of art can illustrate the subject equally? Even if you consider that to be true, it's a matter of opinion, and not sufficient to override the copyright owner's rights. I'm going to remove the fair use rationale as I find it invalid.

I do consider that to be true, but your argument of insufficiency is clear and fair enough. Ciao. --Robert Daoust (talk) 19:15, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
