Reason
This picture is awesome and the best picture of the Last Judgment on the web. FranksValli's previous picture for The School of Athens already received feature status and I thought this deserved it too.

  • comment - sooo close. There are lots of compression artifacts at full resolution though. I wonder if a downsample would obscure them... de Bivort 15:12, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Oppose per debivort. Great art; flawed photograph. Support edit 1 Spikebrennan (talk) 19:43, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Well, I don't know how you will ever get another better photograph of this painting considering the Vatican probably won't allow it. I'm also not sure how The School of Athens got to be a FP while this one failed using the same system. Oh well. Remember (talk) 20:36, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Don't give up Remember! Here is an edited version. de Bivort 20:58, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks! I have no idea what you did, but thanks for doing it! Remember (talk) 05:41, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Support edit 1 - I think the detail in the painting overwhelms the flaws in the parts of the photo showing the floor and walls. I assume this was a low light shot, thus the sensor noise in the floor and wall areas? I would also support a version in which most of the wall and floor were cropped away. de Bivort 20:58, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Oppose Sides are not clear enough, and there is too much shadow, especially in the bottom center, top center, and top left. Rudy Breteler (talk) 21:49, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
