• Oppose - The cut-out of the border looks unnatural. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:00, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
  • Christie's version suggests there's just a blank space beyond the borders. Brandmeister^talk 13:19, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
    • That's not what I was commenting on; there is no possible way to get such a pure colour in the borders without unwarranted digital manipulation. The borders are part of the illustration. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:31, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
• Support I don't think the white border adds anything. Good reproductions. --Yann (talk) 16:33, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
