  • Comment Image has a black border that should be cropped. Otherwise, this is excellent. I am ecstatic that the MET is working with Wikimedia to get images of 3D works released under a free license.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 17:53, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Done. Though I'm a bit suspicious about the file size at such resolution (around 800 KB) which may imply some subtle compression. Brandmeistertalk 19:29, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      • Support - As for the compression, I know that vast swatches of uniform color tend to save smaller even at minimal compression. For example, File:Plastic comb, 2015-06-07.jpg was saved in Photoshop using setting 11 (of 12, with 12 being uncompressed). Given the uniformity of the background, 800 kb seems feasible for a relatively low level of compression.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 12:47, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
