Original – 1856 daguerreotype of transcendentalist philosopher Henry David Thoreau by Benjamin D. Maxham
Reason
The image size is below the preferred dimensions, but I believe that the picture is iconic and historically important enough to warrant featuring. It is strikingly clear for a daguerreotype. I have seen it reproduced in a manner similar to Guerrillero Heroico.
