Original – Jacques Offenbach c. 1860s, in a photograph by noted French photographer Nadar

Reason

This is slightly undersized (1,433 × 2,200 pixels, as cropped), but the original image is 6 cm wide, and I think that includes the paper backing, so - depending on that - this represents a resolution of between about 600dpi and 950dpi, which seems quite reasonable. The picture is high quality, indeed, arguably it's the iconic photo of Offenbach.
