    Love the last one - Head Entree? - He appears to holding a string/wire - could this be one of the first selfie's?

    I didn't know about a Victorian craze for 'photoshopping' photographs. Thank you for the posting. Now I understand, that the manipulations, which I found in a self portait by Henry Holiday, fit into the picture, so to speak. Watch the fingers: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/goetzkluge/18691105/
    (I also added something to the photo. But that is another story.)
