Support Famous Russian bass Feodor Chaliapin as Mephisto. Color (not colorized!) photo by Sergei Prokudin-Gorskii from 1915. Only once published in large album, deals with Feodor Chaliapins creative work. Negatives have been lost, so this scan perfoms the best quality we can get. -- Dmitry Rozhkov (talk) 20:11, 29 August 2009 (UTC)- Support FP. JukoFF (talk) 04:26, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
- Support Seeing as how it's almost 100 years old, I wont complain about the quality. --Calibas (talk) 15:29, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Oppose there are tons of great pictures from gorskii on commons and I don't think this is one of his best work. It's not sharp and the crop is rather bad as well. -- Gorgo (talk) 12:46, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
- Рictures from Gorskii on commons are from United States Library of Congress. They printed from negatives from their archive - so those images have really great quality. But there are only two colour photoes of Chaliapin exist (both by Gorskii), and negatives of both of them have been lost. --Dmitry Rozhkov (talk) 14:20, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
- Support nice --Jklamo (talk) 22:43, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
