- Reason
- There aren't many good photos of Mossell out there, as a glance at the image we were until recently using in his article will prove very quickly. While there was a fair bit of damage - the hand on the right being particularly bad - this image has a nice pose, a bit of personality, and is generally pretty good for 1882. Just over 2 inches wide originally, and still looks great zoomed in fairly far. It would, of course, be nice if we had the negative instead of a print - the paper fibres were probably the biggest problem here - but what's preserved is what's preserved in the end.
Unedited image here, if you want to compare.
Not sure he has the biggest firsts out there, but I'd say he's plenty interesting enough. - Articles in which this image appears
