Quality problems

[Martina_Photography]

Hi, I have posted the photo below and it was rejected due to quality issues. What is wrong with this photo? What can I fix? I would like to add that the photo was taken with a phone and I use Adobe Lightroom Classic to edit it. I also attach the original photo.

Here's the comment:

A lot of artifacts become visible when viewed at 100%. You might want to reduce the size of the. Adobe does accept images taken with phones, but the quality is difficult to maintain or improve upon.

Hello,

Yeah, viewed at 100% you get this:

As it was taken with a smartphone, quality isn't that good when enlarged. Therefore, it can pose a problem if the person who downloaded the pic wants to enlarge the photo and see the artefacts; they won't be a happy camper!

The artefacts are connected with JPG compression.
