OriginalMathew Brady photograph of Franklin Pierce
Reason
Cleaned it up a bit more after Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Franklin Pierce, think it's a very useful historical document, even if the quality of photography from that time - this is a Victorian photographic reproduction of a daguerreotype - isn't fantastic.

    • Honestly, probably just a way of keeping it still. Remember, there were ridiculously long development times for early photographs. They had to have hidden neckbraces. Adam Cuerden (talk) 19:57, 9 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
