Wrong person in the photo[edit]

A big mistake was made in loading this picture on October 27, 2007 by User:Alex:D. The person in the photo is not Mukhtar Pasha, the Ottoman general but it is Tewfik Pasha, the Khidive of Egypt. In fact, the source of the picture points to the following web site:Tewfik Pasha. I am replacing this photo with another photo which I am taking from a book titled "The Homely Diary of A Diplomat in the East" by Thomas Skelton Harrison published by the Houghton Miflin Company in 1917 and now in the public domain. The photo of Gazi Ahmed Mukhtar Pasha is on Page 50 of this book. ---Vikiyazar (talk) 14:21, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
