 * Reason:It's decent resolution, and for a print from the time - we often go with images from negatives - it's not bad. Fanny Bullock Workman was one of Adrianne Wadewitz's last articles, and, well, I want it to be as good as it would have been had she finished. It's not hard to see why she attracted Adrianne, someone who loved the 18th-century travel writings of Wollstonecraft, who had taken up rock climbing recently, and who was a feminist to her core.
 * Articles in which this image appears:Fanny Bullock Workman
 * FP category for this image:You could make a case for a lot of subcategories of "People", but, given she was a travel writer, I think Featured pictures/People/Artists and writers would be least surprising.
 * Creator:Maull & Fox, restoration by Adam Cuerden

 * No, it was a carte de visite, but I cropped the mount as the LoC scan was in black and white, and paper always looks horrible in black and white. Adam Cuerden (talk) 12:47, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah, so I can't pester you for help with the halftoning in Dhalia's image (shame too; I'd love to have access to the negative). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:58, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
