Superb as always D.
Has Joshua's battle picture been 'enhanced' ?....It's just so much more colourful than the others.
Or have the others faded over time ?

It is a different scan or photographer.  The brightness and colour balance of these can vary greatly.
For example: 2 versions of the same page of a manuscript

Two versions of the same print: Capitan Pacha. . Capitan Pacha. (though probably not from the exact same book).
