- Oppose The super wide top crop looks very awkward to me. Was it really printed like this? To me it feels like it was intended to be used as one of those oval-shaped portraits that were popular in the past (like this one) - putting the face right in the center to get the best sharpness put of the lens. --El Grafo (talk) 13:33, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- @El Grafo: Well, this is the print, and the Library of Congress has the negative (which, due to damage, is even worse: A lot of the bottom of his jacket chipped off, but the top's much the same or bigger. Detail level appears similar). It's been a reasonably longstanding rule here that, with historical images, you let reusers be the ones who crop. Adam Cuerden (talk) 09:45, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
