- Comment – Reason for a change? Orig is from Metropolitan Museum of Art. – Sca (talk) 12:19, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment Alt 1 is definitely better, the original looks upsampled (less detail even though a tad larger), and has practically blown highlights (255 in some channel), as well as detail loss in shadows (0 in places). Alt 1 needs a slight rotation, and black borders cropped. --Janke | Talk 13:06, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Janke: It's not square: The top's pretty much dead on horizontal, the bottom's angled. There's no way to crop the borders without cropping paint. I, for one, simply Support alt 1, no crop. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.9% of all FPs. 21:32, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment – Alt 1 is better. But the painting is 21.2 feet wide, so at 3,874 × 2,269 pixels, the resolution is 15 pixels per inch. That's low. For a painting, fine details are lost at that resolution. I say 40+ pixels per inch would be Ok. Bammesk (talk) 12:46, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
