Delist and Replace: Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun[edit]

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 5 Feb 2019 at 11:15:49 (UTC)

Original
Proposed replacement
Reason
The picture used on the subject's article was changed in 2016, for the current version which has brighter looking blues. The proposed replacement was uploaded by Pimbrils with the comment "Better version frorm [1], with slight color adjustment". I don't really have a strong opinion one way or the other, so will leave it to the community to assess which one is better, and we can retain that as FP and use it in all the affected articles.

  • Neutral. As nominator I'm putting this out there for the reasons above, but I don't have a strong opinion myself. —  — Amakuru (talk) 11:15, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Revert to Original - Honestly, these "slight colour adjustment"s to paintings never seem to care much about how they actually look. They're being presented as an example of her art, not just as a representation of her; we should be as close to the art as possible.

  • Revert to original. The current FP is also sourced to the National Gallery and is unaltered, hence is authoritative. It is also of higher resolution. MER-C 17:00, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Revert to original - As per above. Mattximus (talk) 20:30, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Revert to original – per Adam above. Also the original is a FP already. I think we can just use it, regardless of this nom. Bammesk (talk) 17:44, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Proposed Replacement. I actually like the proposed replacement, the color adjustment seem to be slight and given more texture to the painting. Gnosis (talk) 20:55, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
