Just large enough to meet the FP criteria, good quality for a painting from 1500. Essential for the article since it's both the earliest visual representation of the jewel, and the only drawing of it by itself.
Support as nominator I know it's relatively small for FP, but it's good quality, and something different. --

Given the actual object isn't known to still exist, Support. Speculating, I think we have that rather awkward white goache-darkens-over-time effect going on with the pearls, but... not much that can be done there. Adam Cuerden(

Ah, didn't know that gouache does that. Might there have been a convention of painting pearls darker than normal? I know something similar was done with diamonds in pre-18th century painting. --

I am not an expert in 15th century painting, and it's possible it's not gouache in the first place, or that the darkening only applies to the 19th century gouache that I keep facing in opera set designs. Paint can change over time, though; that said, it should not affect promoting this. It's very encyclopedic, even if the pearls look a bit darker. Adam Cuerden(
