Support - The light is a bit dull. But how often do you get a chance to take such a great photo of a historical military band come (back) to life? I simply can't but support a feature! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:40, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose --Mile (talk) 08:01, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Question - Mile, why do you oppose? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:43, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- There is a civilian in military shot. Tight bottom crop, bad background, they neither seem like "unit"...more like fellas from nearby pub. --Mile (talk) 10:37, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 11:50, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support They do look like a bunch of cosplaying guys from the local pub... because that's what they are. That's what I like about this picture. Daniel Case (talk) 19:53, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Historical Comment about an anachronism: 3 of the drums are decorated with the colors of the belgian flag (black-yellow-red), which did not exist at the time of Napoleon...--Jebulon (talk) 16:19, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Artistical Comment, the youg boy at right remembers me this one.--Jebulon (talk) 16:24, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Uniformological Comment, the uniforms of the Tambours du 1er Régiment des Grenadiers à pied de la Garde Impériale were far much more decorated with gold ribbons, and gold in the epaulettes ! See here.--Jebulon (talk) 16:31, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
