72: 51: 228:. I won't support a straight crop that removes the entire book portion because that to me was a fascinating little extra bit to look at, the sheaf of papers and the cover. It's not much, but it's EV (for me, at least). If the dark background is removed though, and the book is kept whole, that's fine by me. – 86:
This is the first page ("Atto Primo, Scena Prima") of an autograph manuscript copy of Scarlatti's final opera; it's in his own handwriting, and has some unusual features including a correction on the fourth stave. It's a good example of a "working copy" of a piece of music by a reasonably important

I'm not sure how well it would work, but feel free to give it a shot :-) The paper's not completely straight-edged - and there's a bit of warping due to age - so we're either going to have to crop bits of the paper off, or still leave some background visible.
123: 90:
The only other two music MS featured images have been cropped to give a white background rather than a grey one, but personally I feel the neutral background feels better - it makes the edges of the manuscript more
160:: This is an obvious FP in some form, and we don't want to crop it too closely, but there seems to be a lot more black background than actually necessary. What do you think of cropping it to the page edge? 269:
Would removing the background entirely be a bad idea? There'd be no faux border, this way, and the book cover would probably be a little more apparent than it is in Alt 1. Just a thought. –

Baroque composer. The manuscript itself is a little dirty and worn (especially in the lower right corner), but cleanup would not seem appropriate - this is, after all, how it looks!

I'm happy with either version (in fact, I'd be happy just to upload the tighter crop over the original, if the Commons FP people won't mind switching...)

Think that just that extra bit of tightness makes it look better and more... well, thoughtfully-prepared, I guess.

The Commons FP will remain as it is, and I prefer the original version anyway. --

That tends to be rather obvious, though. Cut-outs are rarely entirely clean.
