This might be a good place to use the "depicted person" field and template
(
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Depicted_person), which I don't
see used very often. (Is there a reason for that?)

Hi,
Our friend Jo in the The National Archives has
uploaded a test
Comments or offers to help with later mass uploads and
categorization
would be gratefully received. This image is one of an
initial test set
of 300 original scans of never before published World
War II artworks
in their collections for which we hope to encourage
Wikipedia
biography articles to be created about these war time
artists (as
commissioned by the Ministry of Information).
Consequently help on
Wikipedia fostering that side of the collaboration is
also needed.
Over the summer the idea is to publish to Wikimedia
Commons something
in the order of (a multiple of) 10,000 images from the
digital
collections, for the first time uploaded to the
internet for the
public benefit. Experimenting with the initial test
set will establish
our best practice for metadata requirements and
layout.
Wikipedia Collaboration page:
Cheers,
Fae
