• Comment The painting part of the image appears OK, but the text parts appear way too heavily filtered/edited. Would like to see at least some of the actual background material, instead of the "synthetic" look. --Janke | Talk 12:19, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
• Comment – FWIW, the version uploaded on 13 March 2012 has slightly different colors, and more separation between the leftmost 3 persons. The nom image is a more complete reproduction though (includes text). Bammesk (talk) 22:59, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

• And on that, we se a sliver of the unaltered text field at right. Therefore, Oppose. --Janke | Talk 21:14, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

• Janke, I think the two uploads are scans from different prints, not the same print. The 13 March 2012 version has more detail. Bammesk (talk) 20:59, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
