[edit] Marat pic

The following was previously posted on WP:ERRORS:

OK, not an error as such, but ... surely on the anniversary of Marat's assassination the pic of him used should be the most famous and gorgeous portrayal of the act? --Jfruh (talk) 01:43, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

wow; after following your link and seeing that amazing painting it just made me want to find out more. I totally agree with yer... why not the painting?Boomshanka 06:46, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Not unless someone is willing to crop it. Looks poor as a thumbnail on many monitor display resolutions. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 13:47, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Oh please, nobody crop it. Yomangani^talk 14:01, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, no cropping. That would be disrespectful to the artist. Why not link to the painting (at The Death of Marat)? And while you are at it, delink "bathtub" - that insults the intelligence of our readers. Carcharoth 16:59, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
