OP, thank you for posting this. I keep forgetting that not everyone has seen this in school, or been to a museum where this illustration is part of a bigger exhibit. It's one of those things that, unfortunately, we need to keep shouting for the folks in the back row, just in case their school history books were heavily edited.
