Synagogue at Nuremberg

 * Reason:A good example of late nineteenth century photochrom technology in a high resolution file. Idyllic, but note the location: Nuremberg, Germany--as in the Nuremberg rallies, the Nuremberg laws, and the Nuremberg trials.  The domed building in the skyline is a synagogue destroyed in August 1938.  Restored version of Image:Nurembergsynagogue.jpg.

 * Support. There are a lot of great photochrom images out there, and this is one of them.  Encyclopedic and very attractive.--ragesoss (talk) 20:14, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Support. Lovely image with historical interest. Fleagle 15:00, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak support High enc. and historical value, but I feel the wording in the corner detracts from the image. Spencer  T♦C 19:31, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * It would be possible to remove it. Is that a request?  Durova Charge! 20:21, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Sure. I'd like to see what it would look like. Spencer  T♦C 22:49, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
