RE: New Booth Pic?
Many seem to have trouble seeing past that hat (which would undoubtedly have markings on the brim or a hat badge if it was the uniform of a railway conductor). It is documented in the Booth literature (cited in my earlier post) that John Wilkes posed in a yellow fox skin hat in Montreal, which photo has never been found. So we know that Booth did pose, at least occasionally, in strange hats.
Also, for those unfamiliar with 19th century photography, the lighting is often poor, casting shadows on the subjects. That is why the man's right eyebrow is almost invisible and I'm pretty sure that dark patch under the lip is either a shadow or a stain on the photograph. I decided to try cropping the hat off my photo and photo-stitching the man's face together with just the hairline shown in the side-by-side photo posted earlier on this thread. Of course, the faces are not in the exact matching position, but this gives at least a general idea of what the man would look like without his hat. Note that no photoshopping was done, just cropping each photo and putting them together. I did change the tinting of my sepia colored photo to match the tone of the other one. Let's try a link and see what happens. |
