Orientation

[edit]

It was recently discovered that the picture was probably intended as being displayed the other way around (i.e. rotated by 180°). [1] I guess it won't change anything for this file, because it will still be displayed the ”wrong“ way around in the future as it has been for decades. Otherwise it probably would have made sense to also rotate this image. Just wanted to leave that here. --Floscher (talk) 16:36, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw that there is another file, where the picture is shown the other way around File:Mondrian, New York City II.jpg Are these two the same picture? They appear to have the same inventory number (0222), but different creation dates (1941 vs 1942-1944). And does anybody know, why the images show different orientations? --Floscher (talk) 16:57, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
