Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Le Cid: Act 3, Scene 6

 
Original - Act 3, Scene 6 (the ballet at the camp of le Cid) from Jules Massenet's Le Cid, as performed in the original production. From L'Illustration's coverage of the première.
Reason
While not quite as good as the Act 2, Scene 3 image a bit further down this page, I still think this is an excellent image of the premiere production of the opera, and the encyclopedic value makes up for some minor, but not really fixable, streaking in the sky.
