[edit] David Garrick as Richard III
- Reason
- David Garrick was one of the most painted individuals of his time, but this is really the most arresting image of him. Garrick was one of the first actors to use a naturalistic style of acting and while we only have descriptions of his performance and paintings of him in character, this image comes the closest of any of them to portraying the power of his performance.

- Oppose because of low resolution and compression artifacts. I'd support a high quality scan, though. --KFP (talk | contribs) 16:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

- Comment huh, did you know that we have another, much large copy of this at Image:Garrick as RichardIII.png? Won't comment as to quality, just seems odd. Mak (talk) 20:48, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Neutral high quality, oppose nom. Malemi's version is larger (the other is too small to qualify) and has better colors. It also has a layer of colorful noise on it.--HereToHelp 23:53, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose both, the first is too low resolution and seems to have odd coloring. The second has odd blue dots. gren グレン 05:21, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
