Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Still life

Reason: During the seventeenth century the Dutch Reformed Church forbade overtly religious subjects, so still life artists depicted moral lessons symbolically, often with a small object such as a skull or a pocket watch in an opulent scene to suggest that worldly pleasures come to an end. A high resolution file from a good source (the Dutch national library again), painted by one of the leading artists in the genre. This would be Wikipedia's first featured picture of a still life.

Can someone explain the fading/banding that I've circled in the image? Is it a scanning or photographic error? NauticaShad es 03:31, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Wow, it seems I was chasing ghosts. What I was seeing was a monitor problem (fixed now), not anything wrong with the image. I'll remove the circled image. Janke's right about the artifacts, though. NauticaShad es 14:57, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose They're terrible JPG artifacts. --Janke | Talk 12:30, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Withdraw nomination - Drat, you're right. After the Vermeer and the Rembrandt I thought this was a good archive to use again. Off to dig through more archives... Durova^Charge! 14:54, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: There is a typo in the file name. It should only have two l's, not three. Rmhermen (talk) 15:43, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
