                                     GError **error);

A composite accessor that uses the first available metadata field from a list of well-known locations to find the photo's comment (or description).

MWG guidelines refer to these as Description: a textual description of a resource's content.

These fields are:

- Exif.Image.ImageDescription (MWG Guidelines)

- Exif.Photo.UserComment

- Exif.Image.XPComment

- Iptc.Application2.Caption (MWG Guidelines)

- Xmp.dc.description (MWG Guidelines)

- Xmp.acdsee.notes (Commonly requested, read only)

Note that in the EXIF specification Exif.Image.ImageDescription is described as "the title of the image". Also, it does not support two-byte character codes for encoding. However, it's still used here for legacy reasons.

For fine-grained control, it's recommended to use Exiv2 tags directly rather than this method, which is more useful for quick or casual use.

#### Parameters

self | An instance of GExiv2Metadata |
error | A return location for a GError or `NULL`. | [allow-none]

#### Returns

The photo's comment field.
