- Oppose - beautiful painting and this seems like a detailed scan but there are terribly abundant JPEG artifacts along the top (in the sky) and along the left towards the top (in the trees) - Tokugawapants ( talk) 06:07, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
- Support - I can see some marks, but it looks like defects in the painting (maybe creating unofocused artefacts in the scan)- vertical dark lines above the trees. Xanthomelanoussprog ( talk) 11:54, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
