Swing into books. Book week, November 1-7, 1964
  • Disagree. The original file seems to be a lithograph, and the details of the ink spread on the paper are visible at full size. Changing this JPG into a PNG will result in a loss of quality. Daniel Case better to remove your template IMO -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:16, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If others agree, I will. Daniel Case (talk) 16:17, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I've amended my comment, which was supposing this lithograph shot by a camera as we usually do for paintings. PNGs are well adapted to vector graphics, and this piece of art is made of irregular solid pigments. Every lithograph is unique, see for example 2 similar lithographs by Kandinsky 1 and 2 that slightly differ to each other. But this image also may come from a scan, so yes, in that case PNG will be better. Sorry, no problem with the template anymore -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:35, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Jebulon: It was published without a copyright notice; at that time that puts it in the public domain now ... I think.
