- Support this splendid sketch. It looks much more vivid than the original one! It also gives the viewer an idea about the real dimension and proportion of the buildings. Quite informative. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up® 06:30, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

- Strong Support - huge EV, lovely restoration and great quality. I'd like some comment though - looking at the original, this seems a bit too blue. Anyone else agree? —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 16:35, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
- Support - Beautiful picture -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 17:41, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
- Support: Excellent all around. I love images with this much complexity. Synergy 00:30, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comment I agree with Vanderdecken about the colors on this. The colors in the original look a lot more like what the actual place looks like, so maybe a happy medium would work best here. Makeemlighter (talk) 06:19, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
