Original – Hieronymus Bosch, The Crucifixion of St Julia
Reason
This is a historic painting and a high technical standard and extremely high resolution photograph by the restoration team (53,671 × 47,584 pixels). High resolution is valuable for encyclopaedic use, as Bosch is famous for his fine detail work, for example the top right of the work shows a sinking ship and a crowd of fishermen dragging a giant fish out of the sea, details that are almost impossible to examine at conventional resolutions and best viewed on Wikipedia using the media zoom viewer. This image replaced a manipulated image and is an official research quality photograph/scan taken after recent restoration by the Bosch Research and Conservation Project. A scan at the same resolution of the painting using infra-red reflectography is available at File:Triptych of the crucified Martyr (infra-red reflectography).jpg.
