Thanks for your suggestions.

It probably is not EXIF-related. I've opened and saved the image with MS Paint, 
but that did not change anything (the increase in file size aside...).

Any other ideas? (I tend to think the image is corrupted in one way or the 
other, but I have no clue how to fix that.)

Best,
Denis
