• Support as nominator – Yann (talk) 23:07, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
• Is the category OK? Yann (talk) 23:08, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
• Comment – leaning to support but too much contrast correction, too bright, IMO. Bammesk (talk) 03:38, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

• Bammesk: The background is supposed to be white, yet there is no white pixel in the background. Yann (talk) 11:52, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

• The background (in the drawing area) [1] has a fine shade, that shade is too muted in the restoration IMO. Also the physical paper (the border) has a texture, I think retaining some of that texture could be an improvement. Bammesk (talk) 01:54, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

• Bammesk: I made a new version, and a grayscale version, just in case: File:4eme chargeDreux, grayscale.jpg. Yann (talk) 12:55, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

• Support – Nice. Better than grayscale. (sidenote: FYI, I would also support a brighter version, somewhere between the initial nom version and what you have now. Also would support less color saturation.) Bammesk (talk) 13:20, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
