Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/President William McKinley's last speech
Appearance
- Reason
- Crowd shot of the final public address by United States President William McKinley on the day before his assassination in 1901. McKinley stands under the gazebo, hatless, wearing a tuxedo and holding speech notes in his hand. A lower resolution closeup of the same speech is available at File:McKinley's last address2.jpg (which we could put up for voting if people prefer it). Neither version is technically ideal, but both are competent photographs with high encyclopedic value. Restored version of File:McKinley's last address wide2.jpg.
