File talk:Garrote Execution - 1901.png

This image appears to be from a series of staged stereographs taken for the Underwood & Underwood publishing company of New York City.

The University of California has another image from this series, with the man about to be 'executed' clowning in the chair, see http://content.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/kt096nb684/?&brand=calisphere

Quite hilariously -- as evidenced by the photograph -- the UC describes that image as an execution as well.
