Support High resolution and great EV. Definite historic value. JordanContribs 16:27, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - there seems to be nothing to recommend it except its age. Oscar (talk) 04:08, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose - age is important, but have to agree with Oscar O on this issue. M.K. (talk) 14:42, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In many instances, this artist's work has been the earliest surviving depiction of locations in the New World. Wikipedia has a shortage of Latin American FPs. This location became the capital of Cuba and one of the structures depicted here survives as a landmark after more than four centuries. I was fortunate to find a very high resolution file--and I must say it's disappointing to see the nomination reviewed as just another watercolor. DurovaCharge! 20:11, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I disagree with the age problem. It's a painting of Havana from the 17th century... reminds us that everything starts so small. If there were a photo (if there were photography, heh) I don't think this'd be an issue. <shrug> Xavexgoem (talk) 20:17, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support - although I would suggest that Durova's comment explaining the historic background be worked into the caption. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 09:50, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
