Great photo, but I think this is a male Superb Fruit-Dove (Ptilinopus superbus). They're very similar and closely related, but the Orange-fronted Fruit-Dove has a white throat, orange patch above the bill, and a gray neck and green chest/belly that lacks the dark chest band.
 
Don't think twice about it. They are very similar species (especially the females) and I know that you're juggling and sorting a lot of great photos! I appreciate you posting so many outstanding photos from the European collections!
