Smithsonian Roulette

Is it the same photo though, or are there many similar photos? Can you scroll back and check? I can cull these portraits if it's literally the same one.

Otherwise we just contemplate how weird it is that the Smithsonian has so many portraits of these particular Small People.

Thanks for letting me know. I tweaked the database query during a brief outage and forgot to set it back again.

Normal service has been resumed.

But there really are a surprising number of portraits of these guys in the collection!
