Engels or Tolstoy?
A seated man with a white beard pictured yesterday under the headline Feminist friend or foe? was identified in a caption as Friedrich Engels, circa 1840. Engels was 20 in 1840. As a reader noted, judging from the photograph, Engels’s views on women (discussed in the associated article) were not only contradictory but immensely ageing. In fact it was taken in 1908, and its subject was Leo Tolstoy at age 79 (page 16, G2). Link
