Oppose Back in the early 1900s lens technology was of course less evolved, so I can live with a bit of un-sharpness caused by that. I also understand that the negative may have suffered from time, leaving scratches etc. – could probably live with that as well. But there is a considerable amount of motion blur in the hair and the black stuff on the hat (lots of double lines), which can even be observed at the default preview size of the file description page. Yes, film/shutter speeds were probably slower back then as well, but the second image from this photo session shows that it was indeed possible to get a non-shaky image in those conditions. For a studio work in a controlled environment, this seems to lag behind what was possible with the technology of that time. --El Grafo (talk) 16:19, 4 May 2015 (UTC)- Support Jacopo Werther iγ∂ψ=mψ 17:49, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

- Comment Can't you sharpen it a bit? Then I would support it. You restored it nicely besides that. --Tremonist (talk) 13:58, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
- No, I don't think sharpening make any sense for an old picture like this. Yann (talk) 14:00, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
- You are right, its age is surely the main problem. But please know I did not intend to discourage you by voting. Best wishes, --Tremonist (talk) 14:04, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
