Date of the photograph

edit

The filename of the photograph of the Macchiaioli at the Caffè Michelangiolo indicates a date of 1900, but this can't be right. The man at upper right with the sraw hat is identifiable as Odoardo Borrani (b. 1832), and he looks much younger than 68 here; others are harder to identify but the fellow pouring strongly resembles Silvestro Lega (b.1826). In any case, according to Broude (p. 52), the Caffè Michelangiolo only existed from 1848 to 1866. Ewulp (talk) 02:07, 17 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
