Support -- This high-quality, 10 megapixel image of a famous painting from the National Portrait Gallery, London (photo taken by NPG staff) depicts in arduous detail the pivotal 1840 Anti-Slavery Society Convention with an elderly Thomas Clarkson speaking. It contains 136 identifiable persons, and details of it have been used to illustrate 28 different articles, many of which have no other known portrait of the subject. I extracted it from the website and linked every identifiable person who has an article. There is no half-toning since this is an original digital of the photo.

- Info It looks like en:User:Victuallers is in the process of writing an article about the convention in his sandbox and doing an image map at en:Template:Anti-Slavery Society Convention 1840. Dcoetzee (talk) 02:01, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

- Support 1. This is a brilliant load 2. It has been known for the featured image to be an imagemap. As noted above I have been working on the history of this painting for months. Is it possible that we could do that instead? Parts of this picture have been on the main page already. Victuallers (talk) 10:59, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
