Having searched the NLS online version of the 1903 Encyclopaedia Britannica, though there is an entry in American Ethnology that mentions "Americans are straight-haired or Mongoloid" there is nothing like this colour image to be found. The book published that year was not in colour and there is basically only one use of the word "mongoloid".

The image appears deliberately badly sourced, deliberately named to promote scientific racism based on a source that does not justify it, and the claim of public domain is not verifiable. The image may be from a much later work than 1903 and has clearly been harvested from a web page that is not mentioned. "Hugh Chisholm" referenced was an editor for the 1922 edition, but they are unlikely to be the artist.

Unless someone wants to invest more time trying to track down the uploader's source, this should be deleted per COM:PRP. (talk) 19:54, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
