M. A. Wetherell, 1934. Wikimedia Commons.

A scan of the photograph as a US paper printed it from a Wide World Photos radiograph on 21 April 1934, with the agency's caption crediting Dr Robert Kenneth Wilson, a London surgeon. Commons gives the photographer as M. A. Wetherell (died 1939) and tags it public domain.
