Original – The Ballet of the Nuns from Robert le diable, original production.

Reason: A high-quality lithograph of probably the most popular scene of Robert le diable: The one in which the spirits of perverted nuns all seduce the "hero". ...Yeah, this opera's morality is really off. Don't worry, the "hero" decides not to sell his soul to his father, who is a devil, because he hears a song that reminds him of his mother, but only after his love interest arrives to tell him he's going to get everything he wants either way! (He was still going to sign the contract, just to make sure, though, before he heard the music)

Oppose - there is a large blurry smear on the top of the rightmost large foreground arch. It's bad enough that it is visible on the file description page. MER-C 10:49, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @MER-C, Gnosis, Evan0512, Mydreamsparrow, and Buidhe: Should be fixed now. Sorry. It was a slip of the healing brush. Luckily, I had the levels adjustments saved, so could just apply them to the original and copy over the patch. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.5% of all FPs} 23:25, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
