What's the conventional term used to say "I've cropped the image of this painting, but only slightly"?
Here's an example:
1) The Mona Lisa
2) The Mona Lisa (detail)
3) ...but how do I describe this kind of cut?
I can think of ways to say it, but my question is What would be the conventional term used in the art world. How would they phrase it in a catalogue from an exhibition.
Thanks!

Morning all - I can't get in to see Vinny's photo, which is always the way for me - left out again!!
Whoa Robinia I may have known some waiters but not in the biblical sense dear, the only Spics I had anything to do with were a doctor to whom I was engaged, and an undercover cop who checked the discos, that was fun. I wasn't known as the Ice Queen for nothing!
Overcast and cloudy here, having to tumble dry all the washing and it's costing a fortune. Much as I like winter, I'd like a break now!

a Reliant Robinia, well, no wonder you didn't put it about; in one of those things you probably couldn't even find it.
hmmm... looks a little damp today, I may have to use protection

haha, you're right there jno, the only tingles of excitement were when we got the feeling back in our legs .....
<mmmm, is this neti an imposter? ^ ^ ^ ....it isn't quite the tales she was telling us not so very long ago about 'free love' & 'that's the way it was'>
shaney, I think I've discovered what happens to eyebrows - they retract during the night & travel down to your legs. It's just as well they're only uncovered one day a year (legs, not brows) when we.....you know...erm, what's it called.....oh yep - have our summer.
Well it's kwate brate here at the moment but blowing a gale...better pack a rain bonnet & a stapler
anyone know where I left it?

Hiya possums, this is Ms Bossy Boots reporting in <what did I do now> at long last. I've been out trying to find a stopwatch timer for Vinny, one that shows seconds and milliseconds as well, as he couldn't tell us how many of those it's been since his last lemonade ;-)
It's been a beautiful day over here. We've had a rare kind of weather I'm very fond of, the Kitsune Takes A Bride kind of weather. (Kitsune = fox in Japanese.) The Japanese saying goes that when there's a fine light rain at the same time the sun is shining, that's the day when the foxes hold a wedding. I used to have a lovely Japanese print depicting that scene. If you've seen Akira Kurosawa's Dreams, the first episode is about a boy who sees what no man must see - the foxes' wedding. When he returns home his mother meets him with a knife ceremonially placed on a cushion - a fox delegate has already been there to hand over the knife, as the boy must kill himself now that he has seen the forbidden scene. here - or watch the movie Anyway, nice weather today!
Mondays are turning into my television night - American Idol, and BBC's Fairy Tales. I've only seen one episode so far which was the one about Cindy Mellor (say it out loud) and Hans M. Prince (say it out loud!), played by Maxine Peake and James Nesbitt. It was cleverly wrought so I'll watch the next episode tonight.
Ha ha, I like that picture of me saving a few crow(n)s, Robinia, I think I look very competent. Lovely photos,Jude - we will be expecting many more from you now that you've cracked the code!
