Pot-de-fer edit

 
Original - The earliest known depiction of a European cannon (a pot-de-fer).
Reason
I think it's fairly notable that this is the earliest known depiction of a European cannon. However, I'm not sure if that grain is from the photograph, or from the age of the diagram.

  • Oppose for graininess. I'm pretty sure it's the image file; a JPG image of that size saved at high quality would be far larger than 1.06 MB. howcheng {chat} 19:47, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Nice image, very poor scan. --mikaultalk 13:31, 12 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Well, you guys seem pretty sure that the grain is from the photograph/scan, so I'll withdraw the nomination (I assume I'm allowed to? If not I'll just oppose as well). · AndonicO Hail! 14:13, 12 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
