The letters on the side of the face are even visible on Chris Scotts cleaned up version of this photograph on another thread. I have no problem with seeing the ORIGINAL negative at all by the way.
Here is the mid section. Above the right nipple (note no areolae) R N
The mole is visible in the centre of the chest. (botoom right in this snippet) Above it, M.
If I had the negative, I would..I can only do my best with what is on this site, which I have tried to do in many previous posts.
best wishes

What? Your only going by a poor low resolution copy which has faded and been badly handled for a hundred and twenty two years.
I think you should put a bit more thought into what you are posting before telling people to open there eyes.
There's no doubt in my mind that this is a photograph of Catherine Eddowes.
I've just noticed something that tells me I was certainly wrong regarding the right cheek.
Comparing Eddowes "mutilated portrait" and "Eddowes body standing", it's pretty clear that the wound on the right cheek, visible on "Eddowes mutilated portrait", belongs in fact to the left cheek (both pics can be seen on the same page in Begg The Facts).
Note that in the portrait, the left eyebrow is clearly above the right one, whereas it is clearly the contrary in "Eddowes body standing".
Conclusion : Eddowes mutilated portrait is a reverted pic.
The wound I have been alluded to is therefore logically invisible in "Eddowes in the coffin".
Amitiés all,
David
