File talk:The Course of Empire The Savage State Thomas Cole 1836.jpeg

It appears that there is another file on Wikipedia of the same painting:

I would like to note that there are some difference between the current file and the one I have mentioned, such as brighter colors and contrast with the latter, but a sharper image with the former. This likely indicates that the latter is a restored version of the former. Should we merge the files? If so, which one should we keep?--Kodiak42 (talk) 15:07, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
