• Weak support. Looks a smidge dark, and its not quite as big as it could be, but bags of value. J Milburn (talk) 12:12, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

• The size cannot be helped (at least for versions already online; I am unaware of any larger) but the darkness is because this is "as is" from the Prado's website. There was an earlier version that lightened the Prado's, but I honestly doubt her vestaments are supposed to be grey. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:19, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

• If the promotion of the image depends on it, please consider my weak support a full support. J Milburn (talk) 11:51, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

• Support Quite normal for paintings to darken over time. It's generally considered preferable to have the image look like the painting as it is now for these sorts of works. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 23:10, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
