~~Weak support~~ – Here, at least the highlights look proper. Nevertheless, I wonder if the lower left corner really is that dark and featureless in the original painting ? --Janke | Talk 10:37, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

PS: I experimented a bit, there is indeed some detail in the shadow area. Some careful lightening would be beneficial, IMO. --Janke | Talk 16:10, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Those barely discernible trees are a bit more visible in this scan, and the hues are less brownish. Sca (talk) 16:25, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Changing my vote to Weak Oppose for these technical reasons. (Fixable?) --Janke | Talk 09:44, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
