Original – The life-size state portrait was completed by Alexandre Cabanel at the behest of the emperor himself. Napoleon III is seen standing, wearing haute couture instead of a military uniform: a black dinner jacket with a white shirt, black short trousers with black stockings and fitting leather shoes. This suit was fashionable at that time. His only decoration is the medal of the Legion of Honour on his left and the red sash across his right shoulder. His right hand rest comfortably on his right hip, giving an air of confidence. The only indication of his imperial status is the long red mantle with hermine and the golden imperial crown and sceptre resting on the table, on which Napoleon III is resting his left hand on. The gilded room is presumable one of the Tuileries Palace.
Reason
An interesting figure in French history. The EV is good. Quality is good. Painted by a famous French painter, Alexandre Cabanel.

  • INC: we need a reliable source that establishes the integrity of the image (criteria 6), things like color rendition, contrast, sharpness. Art galleries and museum websites generally display accurate images which can establish the integrity. Other websites aren’t necessarily reliable. We It also need helps to know the size of the painting, so we know how many pixels per inch the capture is (criteria 2). Bammesk (talk) 02:54, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, pixels per inch has nothing to do with criteria 2. It only states a minimum pixel count - 1500 at this time. (A super-detailed satellite photo wouldn't even be one pixel per inch, but still acceptable...) The scan or photo looks ok to me, so I disagree with the reason for the opposes. A painting looks quite different depending in what lighting it is viewed (daylight or artificial, low or high brightness etc.) so it is impossible to judge any digital depiction without actually having seen the original. --Janke | Talk 20:01, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Janke, this is more about the criteria than the nom, so I replied on the nom's talk page, here: [5]. Bammesk (talk) 04:37, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
