Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Marguerite of Navarre

Marguerite, Queen of Navarre

 * Reason:A major enlightenment literary and historical figure deserves a featured picture. This Victorian steel engraving is stunningly detailed - would you believe the original is no bigger than an index card? - and serves as an attractive introduction to her. Would you believe I found this book in the bargain bin at a charity shop for £2?
 * Articles this image appears in:Marguerite of Navarre, Heptaméron
 * Creator:"Hinchliff". I can find no further information on him (probably not her, given the date)

 * Question: There are several unfortunate brown spots at the upper left of the engraving, like a spill from coffee or similar. Can anything be done about that?   Mae din \talk 18:13, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I did poke at them a bit, but completely removing them would involve patching in pattern from elsewhere, which seemed less than ideal over larger areas. Shoemaker&#39;s Holiday (talk) 18:43, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
