Strong Oppose - Yorck scans are generally inaccurate. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:38, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Strong oppose, this image is highly over-saturated. Two more images of the same work are now in Commons, both exceedingly close to the original colors of the painting. (See Other works on the file page). Coldcreation (talk) 20:27, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Chris and Coldcreation, the alt is better and near-to-original, right? - T H (here I am) 13:56, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can't say if it's closer to the original, but the colours are certainly more reasonable. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:00, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just a guess, from looking at press images of the painting hanging on a wall with people in front of it, and from seeing many works by Gauguin in person, I would say the other (3rd) image of the painting is the closest match to the original work.

Just to update this nomination, the image nominated right now isn't used for the article proper anyone. Instead, we have File:Paul Gauguin, Nafea Faa Ipoipo? 1892, oil on canvas, 101 x 77 cm.jpg up there now. GamerPro64 04:03, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think Alt 1 would make a considerably larger chance of passing than the Original. Perhaps it can be renominated. – Editør (talk) 11:36, 17 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
