Background

The 2023 publication included new photographs of the print, but the author notes that a standard forensic workflow would typically involve only a small number of high-resolution, controlled macro images with calibration references.

Understanding the publisher’s reproduction process and the decision not to provide exposures for analysis is relevant to assessing the reliability and transparency of the reproduced materials.

References

The 2023 reproduction set includes new photographs of the print, yet it is unclear why so many exposure had been necessary and even none could be provided here for analysis.
