It is humorous, but with an obvious criticism of the conventional effacing of individuality. Obvious ? Talk about yourself (whoever wrote this), but this is not obvious for me or anybody else nor did I see the humor. Since there is no citation I am removing this. --Nogardmili (talk) 14:24, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The title

Why is it called Golconda?--80.4.169.22 16:01, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure - paintings didn't exactly have the most obvious or orthodox titles. I think it might be something Biblical, or from a place name. - THE GREAT GAVINI {T|C|#} 19:11, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The video "Across the universe" of Rufus Wainwright for the soundtrack movie "I am Sam" looks like Golconda of Magritte.

Why dont you cite the quote with the link?

These men are not ordered on hexagonal grids since, well, heexagonal grids have six corner points, such as the 'honeycomb grid'. It is more a 'parallelogram grid', the latter term not really being precisely defined. Also, use 'a grid' not 'a grids'. Golconda can also refer to this here: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Golkonda. 86.51.114.108 (talk) 20:55, 7 April 2010 (UTC) js[reply]

Verification Needed Tag

There was originally a "check" tag in the sentence: "The men are spaced in a hexagonal grids facing the view point and receding back in grid layers." I took this tag away, however, because it didn't seem justified when compared to the rest of the paragraph. In short, this paragraph is merely an introductory description of the painting, which doesn't require any independent verification. If you don't need a "check" tag to state that it is a painting of men in bowler hats floating in the air, you don't need verification to simply state that the figures are floating along a hexagonal grid. This is simply an introductory, objective description of the subject matter, and this falls squarely within Wikipedia's style guides. 74.228.64.159 (talk) 19:04, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
