Original – Photographer Alexander Gardner
Reason
Another of my "photos of photographers", this was one of the major photographers of the American Civil War, and I think the photo - although the cardstock grain certainly could have been better - is a very good one. Cropped to the photo itself since there was nothing significant whatsoever about the mount (a plain bit of very dirty card with a badly centred double-line border (which doesn't quite fit the card, leading to it becoming single-lined for much of the sides), and no text or decoration). I've said my way of evaluating whether to crop the mount before, but I think it's amply clear why this one loses.
