Original - Admiral David Farragut of the American Civil War.
Unrestored file from colloidon glass negative, 1855-1865. (provided for comparison).
Reason
Admiral Farragut was the top Union Naval offier of the American Civil War. This was the man who said, Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead. The eyes fascinate me - calm and fierce at the same time.
