Current FP
Suggested replacement: Restored by Adam Cuerden, in colour.

The Library of Congress have a large, clearer copy of this available... but it's still the black and white image we see here. I think it's time to accept what's already standard practice on Wikipedia: The coloured version is by far preferred. I have not replaced any of the original image. I HAVE replaced the suggested replacement with a restored version, as I felt I should do the bit of work needed to really make it excellent.
