Neutral The object (work of art, if it was a work of art) is beautiful. The subject (The Queen) is beautiful too, according to our modern culture standards (not sure for the post-Akhenaton egyptians !). No doubt for me. But I'm not convinced by the photograph, even it semms to be the best we have. It is noisy, and I dislike the (maroon) post-processing very disturbing IMO on the chin, the neck, and on the shadow of the chin. The highlights over the eye and the shoulder should be a bit corrected to, IMO.--Jebulon (talk) 10:04, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, though I suppose I'm too late to make any difference here. Surely one of the characteristics of an image that is among "the finest on Commons" must be that it is not capable of being significantly improved upon. I don't think that's the case with this photo: there are reflections from the glass case in the lower neck area and ugly blown highlights on the shoulder, nose and forehead. In addition it's noisy in the shadows, and the colour balance is way off. I've uploaded a cleaned up version (aside), but since this is an easily rephotographable object I'd really prefer to see a better quality, higher resolution photo featured.
