Original – Queen Lili'uokalani of the Hawaiian Kingdom
Reason
A fine image of a very important monarch, who also wrote quite a number of well-known songs. Also, has her signature on it. And, yes, the image is meant to be sepia. If I were to remove the sepia, I'd need to remove her signature, because it wouldn't be a good representation of the signed photo seen here.
Articles in which this image appears
Lili'uokalani, Hawaiian Kingdom, and quite a few other notable usages. It replaced an older, smaller and crappier Library of Congress scan, and various low-res scans from various places.
FP category for this image
She's notable in several fields, but I'd image most people would look in Wikipedia:Featured pictures/People/Royalty first.
