OriginalLe Violon d'Ingres (French for Ingres's Violin) is a black-and-white photograph created by American visual artist Man Ray in 1924. It shows model Kiki de Montparnasse from the back, nude to below her waist, with two f-holes painted on to make her body resemble a violin.
Reason
In May 2022, Le Violon d'Ingres sold for $12,400,000, making it the most expensive photograph. Beyond that, this is one of Man Ray's most famous works and for

  • If the print is unique or there are even a few copies, all with specks, we shouldn't be trying to imrove the original. Restoration here should be about restoring a print artwork to how it was. Not trying to improve the original. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:23, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support nominated version; I'd consider supporting a scan of a different print. It is clear that the various prints of this photograph are valued and contextualized distinctly by their owners and others (hence the enormous value of one of them cited in the nomination); therefore, I think our FP should correspond to an identified print, not an idealized representation of a putative "original." blameless 19:10, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Structures of phospholipids in aqueous solution

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 20 Sep 2022 at 22:34:55 (UTC)

Original – The primary structures formed by phospholipids in aqueous solution; the liposome (a closed bilayer), the micelle, and the bilayer sheet.

Caption adapted from image caption at Lipid bilayer.
Reason
This artwork by LadyofHats provides an incredibly detailed yet concise visualization of the three simplest structures adoptable by phospholipid (bi)layers in an aqueous environment. Phospholipid arrangement is at the foundation of biological study and this image gives a great geometric explanation of why cell and organelle membranes form the structures they do.

    That's what image captions are for. The advantage of having that sort of text as a caption rather than embedded in the image is that you can adapt the caption to the context rather than forcing the same caption to work for all the different articles the image appears in.

Yes, it's a judgment call. I don't think it is misfocused though. I think it's shot handheld in low light. A tripod would have allowed f/8 and a sharper image. Bammesk (talk) 01:29, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Le roi d'Ys

Original – Poster for the original production of Édouard Lalo's Le roi d'Ys (1888)
Reason
While one could criticise some aspects: the way the poster raises up its lower right corner to accommodate the attribution onto the plate is a little awkward - it's still from the opera's première, and that makes it valuable. An annoying bastard of a poster to clean up - loads of micro-tears and filthy border paper, but I think I did a good job.

Cox and Box redux

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 24 Sep 2022 at 16:39:46 (UTC)

Original – Poster for the first professional production of Arthur Sullivan's Cox and Box
Reason
Pretty sure the last nomination - which wasn't opposed but failed to reach quorum - was just unlucky as to timing. I've had bad luck this year with that. It's probably the best known of the Royal Gallery of Illustration pieces by far, still quite frequently performed to this day and with modern professional recordings and performances. Passed Commons unanimously.

Poster for the Seventh Conference of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 28 Sep 2022 at 16:28:41 (UTC)

Original – Poster by Anna Soós Korànyi for the Seventh Conference of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance (1913)
Reason
I think the cleanup went great, despite an imperfect scan. Poster is your typical blocky woodblock or silkscreen print of the time, and you can see slight imperfections on the black border where it didn't quite reach the paper (it's cropped to the edge of the paper, somewhat by necessity as the scan is on some sides). Historical value is what really pushes this into valuable and featurable; this is the kind of artefact that you're surprised still exists.

  • Support. High quality, scenic, and sets the context well, despite not really conveying just how long it takes to walk up all of those stairs, nor the contrast between the huge glass fresnel lens one finds at the top next to the small electric lamp that replaced it. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:30, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Wouldn't mind more pixels dedicated to the lighthouse itself, but the wider view gives important context, and there's always a chance for more images that zoom in, as it were.
