Reason: The current version has several de-noising artifacts as well as overdarkened shadows and is of lower resolution. I've made a new restoration from the original TIFF scans of the negative from Library of Congress.

Support delist & replace – but I prefer the full size original with no rotation (restored for artifacts of course). Bammesk (talk) 02:05, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – I note the reasons for the proposed change, but to me the older version is more visually accessible due to better contrast. Sca (talk) 16:01, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There is not enough support to replace the current featured picture, but it can't retain that status, as it isn't used in any article curretly. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 08:54, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The unrestored version has noticeably better sharpness, which is especially apparent in her face in comparison to the Lange article crop version. The restored image brings out a little more detail from the shadows, but the overall 'restored' image is decidedly fuzzier than the 'original'. DonFB (talk) 14:02, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
