    That is a suspiciously high resolution photo of a man who died in 1947. The odd camera focus, general glisteningness, (and odd framing?) and the lack of any matching results in reverse image searching makes me think that somebody may have used AI to produce an image of that could easily be found with a moment’s search online. Is anybody able to find a source on this image?

      I’m pretty certain the this image is an AI retouch of this origional (click on the source for a much higher res version). It looks like it changed his nose, the texture of his skin, his outfit and a bunch of misc small stuff. Completely unnecessary slop.

        Nah, it’s gotta be something from this photoshoot:

      The current state of digital makes it a lot quicker, cheaper, and more convenient to take high quality photos and videos, but I think the best widely available film still has the best widely available digital beat in terms of quality. If you get someone who really knows what they’re doing to capture, store, and transfer a photo of a famous person from the first half of the 1900s it could be very high resolution.

      That said, this picture looks pretty weird. His skin looks like modeling clay or plastic and the focal length isn’t consistent.

      I’ll try having a look, but keep in mind film is generally much higher resolution than even digital today.

      Not just the resolution, the way it’s lit and posed is very contemporary. You could teach a good negative and get resolution like this, but that wouldn’t account for the fact that it doesn’t look anything like a posed photo from the 19th century.

        What else would a reduction in manhood lead towards? What happens when a woman is too manly from their enlarged clitoris? These are bodyshaming and sexist jokes arent they? Haw! Haw! We’re at 70 upvotes so far!

    Anyone who hasn’t checked out the history of this awesome dude should definitely read to on it!

    A quick (and very abridged) overview; he was born “Marx” but started going by “Max” in his early years. Was around during a very war torn time in Europe. Wikipedia says one of his earliest memories is troops marching during the Prussian-Austrian war. He was also very musically talented. Had proficiencies in like six instruments, and even was a skilled singer!
