 * Support Very important person in mathematics. Lead image in article, too. Could be slightly cropped top & bottom, a bit of edges of frame showing. --Janke | Talk 19:41, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment The three images are all different colours. How can we tell which is most faithful? The detail of the brushwork is not amazing. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:53, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
 * This comes from the museum that houses the painting. Bammesk (talk) 00:04, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I would definitely trust the source, the Kunstmuseum in Basel. It is possible this particular image is slightly corrected to remove some brownish tint from varnishing - the other examples look much worse. --Janke | Talk 17:02, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
