 – It's now identified as being from 1892. Armbrust The Homunculus 11:42, 16 March 2020 (UTC) reply

This image is being identified as being from the 1870s, but it's a cleaned up version of another file on Wikipedia that's identified as being from the 1890s. The 1890s date is definitely correct, as the original image can be found here: https://digitalcollections.detroitpubliclibrary.org/islandora/object/islandora%3A151477

This has led to the image being widely mis-cited online as related to events that predated in by 20 years. The date urgently needs to be changed! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Erstwhile Crew ( talkcontribs) 08:33, 23 November 2019 (UTC) reply
