- Reason
- One of best executed portraits in all of history, painted by the great Titian in 1548, of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, King of Spain; perfect color balance, very high resolution (it is available in a set of scanned tiles), very high encyclopedic value, without doubt this should be a featured picture.

- Yes by Carlos, I think you've got it. A little dark (common for Google's scans) but look at the resolution! The cracks are all visible. To repeat an old joke, I think I see some bacteria! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:25, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
- Yes = Support, btw. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:32, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
- Support Not my favorite portrait of the man, and I agree, it's dark, but it seems the man liked his dark portraits (and dark armor). – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 20:37, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
- Support I reviewed this at 3,000px × 3,560px (a hundredth of the full size, but well over our requirements) due to computer issues: That is a processor-killer of an image. It looks great, so I feel comfortable supporting. . Adam Cuerden (talk) 13:43, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
