I searched for the source of the image on Trojan Horse. Found that it's a steel engraving of a painting made by Henri-Paul Motte.

So, I suggest the painting.

Iconic, but not a very good illustration of the trope.

Technically, it's already the page image. Question is whether we want it in color or not.

I prefer the engraving.

It would work if we were talking about the historic object. What we need to clearly see is some people in the image, the ones accepting the object and/or the ones coming out of the object. All I see is some little people in the general area.

That's a very dark painting.

I'm good with either the current or [up].

We probably should illustrate what the purpose of the trojan horse is rather than showing a giant wooden horse in some place. Still would prefer the engraving though.

I prefer the current, but #6 is also good.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
