Reason: Part of my work for Operation Great War Centennial (and the Signpost for that matter: Some weeks, the best way to get pictures to illustrate major featured articles - or, in this case, lists - is to prepare them yourself). A fine photograph of an important Russian personage. Eastern Europeans are underrepresented, and I was surprised to find such a good quality photograph. Minor issues - this was pretty clearly originally intended to be oval framed, as the glow in the lower corners demonstrates, but that's a fairly minor issue given the difficulty of finding a better image. There were also a lot of fingerprints on this, by the way. Someone with greasy fingers got them all over the centre of the image. Don't do that, kids.

Support for the 'stache & chops alone. I wonder if this fellow ever met Admiral Tirpitz? Sca (talk) 16:21, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

PS: Chops seem to have been the done thing in late Imperial Russia. Sca (talk) 13:35, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
