**Original** – An Armenian woman dressed in a national costume poses on a hillside near Artvin (in present day Turkey), circa 1910.

Reason: A beautiful colored rendition of a photograph taken around 1910 of an Armenian woman in traditional attire. High EV. Good quality.

Support Interesting photograph. Great EV. --Chauahuasachca (talk) 20:12, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Strongly oppose original I'm sorry, I can't. I get the impression this was taken from the source and enlarged to 1500, which made the image even softer. There is a link in the source article to the LOC TIFF file, which is much larger in resolution and would satisfy the criteria better, imho. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 21:12, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the full image as an alt. I attempted to remove the CMY(k) colors from the edges and obvious color spots throughout. Shifts in the color for the rest of the image were not touched as this was not an attempt to recreate the actual photograph. I did not mess with contrast or sharpness. ~~The image description page will be updated momentarily (in case someone sees it before I get done with it).~~ – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 22:19, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support alt 1 Image description page updated. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 22:48, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I just found out the three negatives are available to download and can be pasted into the R, G, and B channels respectively. pretty cool. Alt 1 already had the work done for me, but anyone else is free to give it a whirl if they'd like (I'm downloading it now to try it anyway). – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 22:59, 2 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
