As
Darwin Day approaches,
Ragesoss located a high resolution version of an 1871 caricature from Vanity Fair. Is there room for two FPs on him in different styles and media? You decide. Restored version of
File:VanityFair-Darwin.jpg.
Support a greatly improved image of this cartoon, not quite as nice as the 1880 photo, but great if we can have both. .

Support, although I wouldn't mind a bit wider crop so the black borders of show on the left and right.--

A lot of pre-twentieth century borders are a hair off from true parallel and perpendicular, which looks awkward to viewers in our era.

Regretful oppose - there's a texture to this that doesn't look quite right from what I've seen of Vanity Fair. Not much that can be done about that, either. I also don't think it's as good of a caricature as Vanity Fair normally managed.

Support per nom. Question: is there a limit to how many FPs can portray one subject? I'm kind of joking, but also kind of not... ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 09:00, 5 February 2009 (UTC)reply
Request This candidacy has been open since 20 January and has received plenty of responses. Requesting closure before

Oppose Not the greatest quality. And not a particularly good caricature.
