  • Comment: I want to support it, but I am not sure I understand why this is not stronger than a modern photograph showing the same. Is the artist notable? Perhaps an article could be knocked together for him/her? J Milburn (talk) 11:04, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • He seems notable. I can find plenty of prints you can buy of his work, but in depth texts on him seem to be scarce, or offline only. Jujutacular talk 21:25, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- good resolution, good EV, nice picture.
