high quality, high resolution photograph of a historic painting depicting several important historical figures, high encyclopedic value. John Trumbull's other famous panting, Declaration of Independence, is already an FP, and this one is of the same quality.

Comment. What's going on with the coloration in the far left and far right? Is this an artifact of the photography or the scanning, or is this an incomplete restoration of the painting?

It's from the painting, not the digitization process --

For reference here is the painting
as it appears in the US Capitol. I can't really make out the same shaded areas on the sides that Spikebrennan points out. Maybe it has to do with the lighting or the glass?

Possibly, in which case I hope someone would be able to take a better picture than the Architect of the Capitol!!! --
