Articles this image appears in
George III of the United Kingdom, Prince of Wales
Creator
Thomas Lawrence (circa 1814
)
I agree. Also, isn't the image rather unecessarily large (as in file size) for its resolution? Not an issue for FPC, but I was just wondering... vlad§inger tlk 16:36, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have a feeling that the speckled artefacts in the scan are from the canvas (or brush strokes) because I think they appear in the original. Chris Buttigieg 17:37, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Those artifacts are definitely from halftoning. At the very least, canvas texture wouldn't be so regular or cause colour variations. I suppose the file size is a bit excessive, but if the uploader wants to give us extra information, I say take it (even if involves long downloads)! J Are you green? 18:53, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose halftoning artifacts. 8thstar 23:27, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose halftoning problems discussed above. Zakolantern 17:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
