A photograph from around 1890 showing a seated man reading a book is being shared widely. The image comes from the National Science and Media Museum's collection, made available through public-domain archives. Its circular Kodak format and quiet everyday subject have drawn attention from readers and photography enthusiasts, with tags noting Victorian reading habits, hats, chairs and balconies.
Why now: Archives are resurfacing striking Victorian-era public-domain photographs that people find charming and shareable.
