a photograph fails 2nd face criteria

. . . in referece to the wikipedia text, Photographic image production

There is a faint second face on the reverse side of the cloth. Both the image on the front side of the cloth and on the backside are completely superficial and there are no imaged fibers in between. It is near impossible to imagine how a photographic emulsion was applied to both sides of the cloth without it soaking into the cloth and how the sufficient light would have passed through the thickness of 70 to 100 fibers to expose both superficial emulsion layers.

This mage bearing material, a polysaccharide, is not photosensitive. The chemical change that took place was not produced by light. The images are not photographs of a human body. The face is not a photograph of a human face.
