Original - A self-portrait by the 17th century Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, painted in circa 1623.
Reason
We haven't had any fine art nominations in a while, and they make great FPs. The dimensions are right, the reproduction is very large (while the painting is by no means huge) and the image has pride of place in the artist's article.

  • Support It feels like it has a yellow tint, but I can't say since I've never seen the original, and I'd assume the scanner was calibrated. The source link is broken though. Noodle snacks (talk) 11:08, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - I've seen this piece before, elsewhere, and it has the yellow tint in every reproduction. Come to that, many of the Bernini paintings I've seen have the same tint. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 22:08, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
