- It's not very sharp... even in the thumb I'm bothered by the softness around the shoulders. Fletcher (talk) 18:09, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- I think the ultra-shallow DOF is probably a stylistic choice of the time (looking at similar studio portraits from 1860s-1930s) as well as a result of the relatively large but not sensitive film of the time. Still, it's not sharp where it is in focus, and the jpeg artifacts are disturbing. Uploading less compressed version. Thegreenj 21:27, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
