The image originates in a low-resolution download available free of charge from the State Library of South Australia website (see “Source”). The library's web page states that a higher-resolution image (size 7.1 MB) is available for purchase from them. I cropped the image to remove a dark "artistic" but featureless and now much damaged vignette from both sides. I improved some exposure and contrast values and removed scratches blemishes, dust and chemical marks before uploading to Wikimedia Commons. The image with original faults can be downloaded from the SLSA website cited above.
