- Reason
- Iconic, high quality painting with high EV. The image does fall a bit short on resolution being 36px away from meeting the criteria, but I don't think that really matters considering the EV.

- Oppose - Good nomination and excellent EV, but sadly this is not a good scan. Even if we forget the below par resolution, the colors are way off the original (see here). If you can find an alt scan with a higher resolution and better color to the original, I'd consider supporting. Thanks. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 02:35, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. MER-C 10:15, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
