John Wordsworth---



----the distinguished Bishop of Salisbury, 1885-1911.

A nice old English cabinet card (though the right arm looks a bit peculiar).  Grand-nephew of William Wordsworth, to whom he would seem to bear only a slight resemblance.  Indeed:  imagine said Reverend with tight synthetic jersey top in place of vestments, a shaved nearly-bald head, and sporting an aerodynamically designed bicycle helmet and you realize this is actually Lance Armstrong in clerical drag.





Did a few odd reworkings the other day.
