Note that, on the basis of the hair-parting, button-holes on garments, etc. at the photograph at "File:Archibald Liversidge. Photograph, 1898. Wellcome V0026723.jpg" it is obvious that this image of Archibald Liversidge has been left-to-right reversed in order for it to fit within the design of the collection of photographs.
