- What's going on here? The source image is much smaller, and there are very strange artefacts on this version. Aaadddaaammm ( talk) 07:23, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- The original source ( here) notes that there is (was?) also a 20mb TIFF. This seems to have been drawn from that file. Can't access it for some reason. Crisco 1492 ( talk) 09:21, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Oddly I get the same error now, though it was available not too long ago. Maybe it's just a temporary issue at the LOC. JBarta ( talk) 12:15, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Hopefully. If you still have the original TIFF perhaps you could upload it separately? Crisco 1492 ( talk) 12:53, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose The monochrome tones look mucky (especially the "shadows" behind AMW which I suspect may be a contemporary enhancement) and it just generally looks to have been rather carelessly processed. Plutonium27 ( talk) 16:11, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose The flowers all around Wong are rather distracting and detract from the image as a whole. I'm not exactly sure what their purpose is...? Spencer T♦ C 02:01, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
