  • Comment: Though it is very artistic, it is not very encyclopaedic. The rain distracts from the building. --Redtigerxyz Talk 11:49, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • But a building has many aspects, not just the sterile flat image one. First one sees the rain, than looks to the building that reads the article, I think this is how it actually works. It's artistic value makes it attracting, not distracting. Moreover the rain facilitates a symbolic reading of the building. --Elekhh (talk) 19:39, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
