Copyright concerns. The subject of the image died in 1909, but this is not a straightforward photograph; it is either a chalk rendering or a photograph that has been artistically enhanced. There is insufficient information to determine who created it or when. The subject is at the center of a scandalous murder in New Jersey, and interest in her could easily have persisted beyond 1923. In fact, it did. While it is sourced to "Rutgers University archive", the link given is to "NEW JERSEY HISTORY'S MYSTERIES!". The image is no longer hosted there that I can find, so it does not seem useful to determine the status of the image. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 14:50, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
Keep It appears to be a photograph with some hand-retouching, in a style common for photographs reproduced for publication in the early years of the 20th century. While better sourcing would be preferred, I see no reason to doubt this is a pre-1923 US PD work. Infrogmation (talk) 19:29, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
