Comment - Please make an argument for this photo or let us know why you picked it. Probably not because of the great historical significance of the congressman, if w:C. Pope Caldwell is any indication. Just because it's a good portrait? It is, and that might be enough of a reason (it's growing on me and I may vote for it), but I'd like to see you make the argument about why you support it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:55, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- I definitely nominated more because of the quality of the image and the notable photographers Harris & Ewing. The subject is not a particularly notable person, but he was a U.S. Congressman for 6 years. The photograph shows a lot of detail for 1915 and more than any other Harris & Ewing portrait I have seen here. As far as I can tell, they don't often do such close ups: Category:Harris & Ewing Collection. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 12:21, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There's something haunting about his facial expression, too. I'll Support. Thank you. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:30, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As a helpful comparison, here are all three FPs we have by Harris & Ewing: File:Alice Paul (1915) by Harris & Ewing.jpg, File:Hollow Horn Bear LCCN 2016858434 (2) (cropped).jpg, and File:Senator George P. Wetmore of Rhode Island in a Krieger electric automobile.jpg. Zooming in on Hollow Horn Bear's portrait shows this photo is of much better detail and not scratched as they often did for newspaper publication. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 12:40, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
