Hans Christian Andersen
Reason I think that this is the most representative portrait of the writer - good quality, good resolution and good restoration as a whole. Studio shot that's why not geocoded. -- MrPanyGoff
Review
(criteria)

I'm not fully convinced by the so called restoration. I prefer this version of the same pose. The resolution is not so high, but the picture looks better to me. Furthermore, the autograph of Andersen adds a lot to the value IMO. Thoughts about ? --Jebulon (talk) 13:47, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

  • Actually these are reproductions of one and the same portrait with different colour balance. I nominated this because it is somehow clean and with more real Black&White balance but I would accept the other version too. As for the script below I'm not sure what is it actually. Why do you think that it contains Andersen' autograph?--MrPanyGoff 20:25, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
    • because of the signature.--Jebulon (talk) 22:38, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
  • It is a difficult task to read these letters.--MrPanyGoff 14:17, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
  • yes but we have a transcription on the file description page.--Jebulon (talk) 19:20, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
