Images used on Wikipedia should reflect information published in reliable
sources about the subject, not the internal life of the editor, nor the
consensus of how editors view the subject.

This is the appropriate policy to cite with respect to images which
reflect "objectification" of the subject. Such images come from the
internal psychic images people have rather than corresponding to reality,
see [[object relations theory]].
