  • I'm unable to find this image on Gallica. Is there a typo in the name there? As for the image itself, it's not terrible, but compared to the photos of him I could find on Gallica, looks to be very high contrast, and it cuts off a bit oddly.

  • Adam, I couldn't find it earlier either. I did another search and found it here. (I searched for "Agence de presse Meurisse", then used refine option with "Miguel"!) Bammesk (talk) 01:13, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Bammesk: Good work! Think it could maybe do with a levels adjustment, possibly a crop as well, but there's a decent photo in there. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.8% of all FPs 18:14, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Adam, there is a tighter crop here. Feel free to introduce a CSS image crop as an Alternate. Personally I like the nominated crop because it shows the full length of his coat (it hints at the fashion of the time). I'll look into adjusting the levels.

  • I adjusted the levels slightly. I didn't want to stray far from the original. Bammesk (talk) 03:29, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
