Picture Doesn't Match Wiki Loves Love 2019 Edition Scope

[edit]

Hello, Pierre André Leclercq. As you may know, the theme for Wiki Loves Love 2019 is festivals, celebrations, ceremonies and rituals of love. Although your photo seems fine with general criteria of Wikimedia Commons, its subject doesn't seem to pertain the theme on which Wiki Loves Love focus in its current edition. Neither the visualization of the photo nor the reading of the description given provide enough context to enable understand in which manner the photo could pertain to the theme. If you nonetheless estimate that the photo do pertain to the theme, then please provide more information about that, so we can consider reintegrating in photos illegible in the contest. Of course you also are welcome to provide more photos that you think relevant for the theme of this edition, and we encourage you to do so. With lot of Wiki Love, in the name of the Wiki Loves Love team, Psychoslave (talk) 19:08, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Psychoslave This sculpture by Camille Claudel, represents the allegory of Vertumne who was desperately in love with Pomone, who always rejected him. So he disguised himself as many different people to be near Pomona. One day, disguised as an old woman, Pomone allowed him to enter to discuss. He told Pomona about Anaxarete's love story and told him a lot about Vertumne. I thought the competition theme was open to artistic works. If this is not the case you this photo can be removed.
