Original – French painter Édouard Manet, who has failed to have a luncheon on the grass with a naked woman this time... or has he? That look in his eyes could argue otherwise.
Reason
I really like this image, and the image is scanned from an large print, which means it's quite big, although, I'm not so sure that, given film grain size, there's much that would have been lost if it was a little smaller. Still, who cares? It looks great quite large, just maybe it doesn't reward zooming in to 100% as much as some images do, and it's pre-1870 according to Gallica, which does put a limit on what we can expect in the fine detail. If anyone spots anything that needs fixed, I'll deal with it tomorrow, as I'm sleeping now. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7% of all FPs 05:57, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
