For more details, see this document: <http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html>. Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: I find your argument unconvincing. A painting with the same name as the poem that is described as "illustrating" [1] the poem, its subject matter derived from the poem and depicting a scene from a particular part of the poem [2], is an image that enhances the theme and subject matter of a page whose main content is the poem "the lady of shalott".
