Picture

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the photo attached to this article appears to be of Louis A. Martinet, the American civil rights figure. Snuffgarrett350 (talk) 15:24, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This seems unlikely, since this picture is from a Paris visiting card. Also, Louis A. Martinet was mixed race African-American, and, according to this video (3 min 20 sec), no picture of him has been found. This picture was taken between 1861 and 1867, when Louis A. Martinet would have been between about 12 to 17. --Robert.Allen (talk) 08:19, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I trust that. In this KATC article, they link to this photo, but it must be a mistake. Snuffgarrett350 (talk) 21:15, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
