- Support as nominator --Proudbolsahye (talk) 22:34, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
- Questions. Really nice EV and artwork, which inclines me to support. Have a few naïve questions. Do you know a little more about the source (artist, or that it is definitely unknown, also what Armenian document does the work come from). Also, I am not photo techie, but it seemed grainy when I looked at full resolution (like a digital photo or a scan, not like the detail of the parchment).TCO (talk) 23:46, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
- Comment @TCO Found it: It's called The Queen Keran Gospel. I'll relay more info on your TP. Wouldn't want to clutter the nomination page... Proudbolsahye (talk) 23:59, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
- Conditional support. The info on manuscript/artist sourcing is added now and benefits the file user. Plus it shows the thing as even more notable. Conditional on this not having any "blowing up the resolution" shenanigans.TCO (talk) 02:10, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

- Strong Oppose This image is of obviously awful quality. There are large amounts of noise, it is off coloured and low resolution. An image like this should not be photographed but scanned. This artist is well known (possibly better than, at least as well as, those depicted) and good copies of his work aren't all that difficult to find. Cowtowner (talk) 13:20, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Support Good artwork and photograph. Wonderful EV. --Chauahuasachca (talk) 20:12, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose per Cowtowner. I would, however, support the shit out of a big high-quality scan- I love the image, just not this reproduction. J Milburn (talk) 16:11, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
