Oppose I don't see what makes this image "above and beyond". It's a picture of Balfour but I don't see how it has much more EV than any other decent quality picture of him. Visually, the crop is too close IMO. (t · c) buidhe 03:55, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Buidhe, I chose to restore this photo of Balfour partly because it was already present on his Wikidata profile, but also because it's (imo) the best photo we have of him. The other possible one would be File:A.J. Balfour LCCN2014682753 (cropped).jpg, but the photograph itself is more blurry and he's not looking into the camera. As for the crop, it was directly pulled from National Portrait Gallery website, so I'm assuming the only other content of the photo is a border.
