- Oppose Not a particularly arresting or outstanding work, and as a recognisable representation of the Andes, somewhat questionable . Plutonium27 (talk) 00:18, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
- We aren't here to be art critics, although aesthetics can be a factor in judging a photograph but not an artwork such as this. We are here to look at the encyclopedic value and other featured picture criteria. The article Heart of the Andes seems to make clear that the painting was very notable and critically acclaimed in its time, and it is not our place to substitute our judgement for well-sourced and historically accurate information in the article. --Pine✉ 05:58, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
