I Lombardi alla prima crociata[edit]

Reason: First or very early edition libretto for I Lombardi; an opera revised four years later into a new, French opera (Jérusalem). Early operas by major composers, particularly ones that got pulled apart later to make better operas, thus limiting performances, are a bit hard to get good images for.

Support - Great job, as usual. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:21, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Nothing to fault it on technically (since "not blurry or containing stray body parts" is the limit of my my technical expertise). Not very exciting though; I'd prefer a car chase or high-stakes baccarat game, or better still, monkey jockeys in top hats racing leopards down the Champs Elysée. See what you can do next time.

- Heh. Not every valuable image can be exciting, agreed. How about this image I've been eyeing a while? http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/ppmsca.25986/ Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 12:56, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - Just the ticket; it's even got a monkey (I think) in a hat and glasses in a car on a tightrope. What are you waiting for? Belle (talk) 13:08, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
