Authenticity of image

I have doubts about the authenticity of the image said to depict Pertevniyal Sultan used as the primary illustration in this article. A Google reverse-search turns up nothing beside a Facebook post (unreliable souce) and the image's own entry in Commons. I have the niggling suspicion that it is AI-generated: notice the strange warping on some of the faces of the people portrayed.

I will leave the portrait in for now, hoping someone can conclusively prove it's authentic or otherwise. Yekshemesh (talk) 05:36, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

I am quite sure that it is AI generated. No source is given and it was added in September 2023 when AI images were already available. As you said one face is warped and the look of the woman in the middle seems too modern to me. I am in favor of deleting it.

These AI images will be an incredible threat to Wikipedia in the future, when they will be virtually indistinguishable from real ones. It's still quite clear here, but in a few years' time... Yeckert (talk) 21:15, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

I have reused the current picture (Validé ou la Sultane Mère by Augustin de Saint-Aubin.jpg) from interlanguage versions of this article, hopefully sufficing to illustrate the Valide Sultan enough to fend off any further autogenerated pollution. RedGrinchJr (talk) 11:43, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

The archive copy of the first link (marked as "attempted") is useful. The second archive copy isn't useful and has been reverted, with cbignore added. Dhtwiki (talk) 18:28, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
