My submission is this piece by Francesco Hayez
We just used that piece on Samson in CoW.In that case, I strongly support #4.
I like Gabe's #4 the best but here is another by Goya

It is on a web site that requires posters to grant world wide free distribution rights to any images they upload. It is possible that the original poster has misrepresented there ownership.What about this...

It looks like someone added some red splashes and black scratches to what it probably a picture with a copyright on it. I don't think that makes it PD, even if you post it in a website to share it.
I like the piece that Isaac shared. I have three others that we can consider too. I'm going to display the suggestions on a full art rendering of the card below.
The piece Isaac found by Pier Francesco Mola
A hybrid piece by R. R. MacIan and Pieter Schoubroeck
A crop of Goliath from a piece by Gebhardt Fugel.
This one is by Angelo Bronzino.

Is this spoiling that this card will be full art?? :-)

The Pier Francesco Mola piece belongs to the permanent collection of the Louvre. The Louvre rules state that "Artworks in the permanent collection exhibition rooms may be photographed or filmed for private use by the operator." The Louvre does provide a professional images, which I linked to earlier, but they note, "N. B.: images may be reproduced for private use only." They also provide a legal means of licensing their content.On the other hand, can you warrant that the Oriental Warrior image provided as #1 is not an unauthorized replication of this image https://www.photo.rmn.fr/archive/09-577013-2C6NU0KJUTQL.html (https://www.photo.rmn.fr/archive/09-577013-2C6NU0KJUTQL.html) for which licensing is required?
Pier Francesco Mola lived in the 1600's. As such his work is in the public domain. It's not at all uncommon for businesses and websites to offer PD pieces for a premium cost. I don't speak whatever language is used on the website you linked, but I've seen enough like it to assume that is what they are doing. I have no concerns about using the Pier piece on Rapha or another card.
I wish we could just hire a full time artist....

Heck even a freelancer :P although full blown art would be a more expensive freelance proposition.
i love the classical art. i used to love the comic like artwork, but the classic art has become my favorite.
it's so holy looking and epic- like the Bronzino
it really is priceless.. thankful we can use it as public domain

I love the classical art as well. It seems as time goes by it gets harder and harder to find new (old) art.

haha the funny thing about that statement is that the reality is the opposite
To give an accurate perspective I've added a full art rending of the Bartolomeo Pinelli piece on post #3. It's currently the bottom option.

We should just use this :)
I think given that there were 2 pieces added recently a new thread should be created so we can vote fresh.

@The Guardian perhaps just put all of the images in the original post and put numbers with the images and voting options.
Here's what I'll do. People can vote and change their vote for the next 72 hours. At Friday around 4 pm CST, I'll remove any option that does not have at least 20% of the vote. Once those options are removed, the people who voted for them can change their vote to a remaining option (if they wish). If only one option has more than 20% that option will be chosen.

Does this mean that submissions for new art pieces is closed?

Carrying Lahmi home from Gezer.
Does this (in the quoted spoiler) look better?Wallcousins
Carrying Lahmi home from Gezer.
I love this one. It also kinda flows with the protection aspect. Since Lahmi would've had to leave territory to be hurt/killed. It's a little bit grainy though any chance of getting it cleaned up a little bit?
I would like to submit this piece.
It feels distinctly "Philistine".
I don't know if it is copyrighted or how to find that out.
I believe it is by "John Shumate".
Well, at least I tried. :(

One of the reasons we like doing the Community Created Card is because it gives a glimpse into the struggles we go through as a volunteer Elder/Playtest team - Finding Art is one of the biggest time consuming things we do - Often we'll find a really sweet piece, only to realize that it's not PD - Some of us are so good we can tell you the artist of a piece just by looking at the style (And that it's not PD)
If these are going to be used in full art I think the nude (or implied nudity) images are not appropriate.

- Judean mediums and some guy we are getting in the new set, where definitely done by the same artist :-)
This guy? Sorry pic is big

Hmm... That art looks familiar
You guys are just taunting everyone who doesn’t know what you do... ::)
Should the Bronzino take first, is it safe to assume that it will be cropped as Gabe's card sample showed?
Asking because the full painting kinda pushes right up to (if not over) the edge.
I think you misread his question--he was just asking if Bronzino was ultimately picked, would it be cropped the same as Gabe's sample. My guess is yes.Thanks. That was my question.
The Bronzino is a depiction of the god Neptune (full image shows trident to his right) and is lewd, even as it is currently cropped. Not really comfortable with it at all. We are going to create a new promo that has as much nudity as the original Bathsheba card with I have to essentially hide from more conservative families.
I'm not sure why everyone wants Pinelli's picture it doesn't remind me of a Philistine giant at all. Don't get me wrong it's a great picture it just doesn't look like a Philistine giant to me.

Reminds me more of the old guys in the YMCA locker room than a Philistine giant.
It's interesting to me that the people who have a problem with the Bronzino piece because of "nudity" have no complaints about the Pinelli piece which shows just as much "nudity". The Greek looking guy in the Pinelli piece appears to be sitting there naked with a blanket over his lap.The difference for me is that the full art Brozino appears to show a bit of "junk" (in the venacular that the kids use today). The Pinelli does not.
I don't mind the Mola piece, I just wish he was holding a sword or a spear rather than a bow...doesn't really strike me as "Philistine."
I honestly think the Mola piece is one of the best most the top 3 at the moment. he's fully clothed and has color \o/Werner is fully clothed and has WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY more color than anyone else.

Perhaps there should be a new Philistine Archer card 8)
I'm not trying to be too judgmental about the process which I think has come along smoothly so far but does anybody else see a possible problem with a locked 3 contender vote where the piece with the lowest number of votes could be out for good but the people who voted for that piece feel left out in the final race should 2 come out as the last viable contenders?

You've been invited to help create the card with the rest of the community. It comes across as rather ungrateful and even manipulating that you complain about the way we involve you in that process.
At no point will we make everyone happy with every step. I think Justin has done an excellent job of trying to make as many people happy as possible. He's taken several extra steps I would not if I were running it again this year. Sit back, enjoy the ride and be thankful that we get to do this. Problems, complains and lots of criticizing of the process will potentially make us not want to do this in the future.
Just in case anyone is getting any ideas, there will not be two versions of Rapha printed in the event of a tie between the two pieces... ::)C'mon everyone. We really need a tie here just to force The Guardian to come up with one last on-the-fly voting rule change!
Too late...I've already started thinking about the possibility so by 8:30 tonight, there will be at least 10 hours of thought going into it. ;D
Instead of having both the giant and his wife in the pic can’t he just be increased to cut her out of the pic?

I have been trying to do that for years with our wedding photos. :)
Just a few hours left! YOU could be the deciding vote! 8)That's my job!
