Different numbers = different sizes?

[edit]

An anonymous reader expressed the following opinion in the text of the pageː

"The numbers (1076, 226) cannot have any relation to the print size. In any case, we do not have information on the sizes of both pictures uploaded (February 2012 and March 2021). If the "original negative glass" is one (the one in the Alinari collection), so the sizes and the numbers have no meaning at all".

Answer by Giovanni Dall'Ortoː ̈We have several examples of different sizes bearing different numbers, just a few examples, including the present oneː

Plus, the negatives were two, or even three, Alinari only got about 1000 out of the 7000 original ones.

I'll be happy to discuss about it with you, provided that you contact me via my discussion page rather than through anonymised IP numbers in an unlogged way. On Wikis this is considered vandalism. So please, do contact me and let's discuss about the matter. Thank you. User:G.dallorto (talk) 23:41, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
