Ceiling of the Santa Maria della Vittoria in Rome

Original – The vault of the Santa Maria della Vittoria shows, amongst other things, a fresco of The Virgin Mary Triumphing over Heresy, appropriately enough for a church whose name translates (idiomatically) as Our Lady of Victory.
Reason
The extensive, detailed 3D nature of the ceiling, combined with minimal distortion makes for a fantastic image.

  • Support even though it is upside down. [holds laptop over head, looks up] Now it's perfect. Belle (talk) 17:44, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support - Technically pretty darn good, but this painting / vault is barely mentioned in the article. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:42, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Crisco 1492: I think it gains a fair bit of EV from its strong connection to the church's patron saint and - what's the term for the specific descriptions of the saint? Aspect?. Adam Cuerden (talk) 00:07, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      • This painting inspired the book "Angels and Demons" --LivioAndronico (talk) 08:15, 19 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      • Hence the weak. There is some EV, but I'd like a bit more information on the work. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 02:28, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support per Chris Woodrich - I agree with the EV issue. It's only really mentioned once by name, let alone explained what you are looking at... Lovely picture, with excellent clarity though... gazhiley 11:16, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
