Eigenhändig verbesserte Version der durch Unbekannte mit entsprechender Berechtigung einfach in "Frederic_Chopin_photo.jpeg" umbenannten und aus meiner Galerie entfernten, jedoch von mir persönlich mit hohem Aufwand hergestellten Datei, die ich ursprünglich am 9. Nov. 2009 um 01:02 Uhr unter dem Namen "Chopin1849opt02.jpg" in Commons hochgeladen habe. Insbesondere sind nun noch Details von Gesicht und Händen verbessert, die ausgeglichener und besser durchgezeichnet sind. Amano1
