Delist and Replace: Shakespeare

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 14 Apr 2024 at 08:27:40 (UTC)

Reason: The current FP was promoted about 16 years ago, and still is a good one. But there is a better file with sharper and higher res scan of the original, that is already used in the main subject article as lead image, as well as multiple other important articles. The proposed replacement is also the one closer to the original colors of the painting.
Articles this image appears in: about 70 articles
Articles the proposed replacement appears: Act (drama), Life of William Shakespeare, Outline of William Shakespeare, Shakespeare bibliography and William Shakespeare
Previous nomination/s: Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/William Shakespeare
Nominator: The Herald (Benison) (talk)

Delist and/or replace any version — Once D&R done, I'll update the articles with the new FP. I have dropped a message on the original nominator, but they aren't active in three years.The Herald (Benison) (talk) 08:27, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Replace. Source is the gallery hosting the painting itself. Colours are probably better although I'm not sure what happened in the top left corner. MER-C 18:09, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Based on the current FP, the proposal could get some cleaning. Yann (talk) 21:34, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not exactly my area of expertise, but summoning Adam Cuerden for a review, please. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 05:08, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For whatever reason, paintings are usually considered off-limits, even when the lighting is going to emphasise or de-emphasize the cracks and dust. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs.} 12:30, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. And BTW, the Beethoven pic was a case in point, IMO. -- Sca (talk) 14:00, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mean the cracks, which are on the painting, but the white dots, which aren't. Yann (talk) 13:19, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I made a new version, cleaning some white spots. Yann (talk) 18:23, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
