Where did pic come from please

Apparently, it's a daguerreotype (or possibly an ambrotype) that someone thought was appropriate. It is certainly not a picture of Ann Rutledge, because she died before photography became practical (1839 at absolute earliest).

You find the explanation here: https://www.awesomestories.com/asset/view/158688

Maybe that should go in the "About" section?
