Not a frame screenshot from the film ?[edit]

Just want to query the provenance of this image. Quality looks much too good for the original film (1915 16mm film stock ?). Plus she's a bit light on the make-up ! Could be a publicity still taken on a stills camera on-set ? But I don't recognise the scene or setting. After 7 hours you get quite good at recognising the limited set of furniture that the goodies and baddies seem to swap between episodes, but the bench, throw and table are all unfamiliar ! Can anyone track down the episode and approx time, or give some context in terms of the location and plot ? --195.137.93.171 13:26, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A little more can be seen in [1] - the lamp looks pretty modern - a 60s recreation ? Note also that the candles etc are just a painted backdrop - see the wrinkles behind the lamp ! Shoes, no boobs, no gloves and small single overhead lighting are wrong. --195.137.93.171 14:09, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Contrast also [2] and [3] which is even signed 'musidora' ! - maybe Musidora did some photo studio sessions ? Bra looks too 'Playtex' ! --195.137.93.171 14:09, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
