- Reason
- This is a historic painting and a high technical standard and extremely high resolution photograph by the restoration team (53,671 × 47,584 pixels). High resolution is valuable for encyclopaedic use, as Bosch is famous for his fine detail work, for example the top right of the work shows a sinking ship and a crowd of fishermen dragging a giant fish out of the sea, details that are almost impossible to examine at conventional resolutions and best viewed on Wikipedia using the media zoom viewer. This image replaced a manipulated image and is an official research quality photograph/scan taken after recent restoration by the Bosch Research and Conservation Project. A scan at the same resolution of the painting using infra-red reflectography is available at File:Triptych of the crucified Martyr (infra-red reflectography).jpg.

- Note, the image was so large that it was breaking the zoomviewer. The viewer has now been rebuilt after a modification to be able to cope, and you should be able to see the correct version of the file and zoom in down to see every brush stroke. --Fæ (talk) 22:48, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
- Support Very nice, and glad to hear that the viewer was fixed so that it can be seen in full. Cat-fivetc ---- 09:02, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

- Support - What a treat. And a nice tie in for Bosch's quincentenary. (Especially for those of us who are not likely to get to the exhibition in the Netherlands). Mr impossible (talk) 12:46, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
