The picture at the bottom of the page, of an older-looking man, seems unlikely to be a picture of the Sadi Carnot discussed in this article, since that man died at the age of 36. Is it possibly a picture of one of his relatives with a similar name? It would be an easy mistake to make.

In fact this is a picture of his father, Lazare Carnot. We had a discussion about it in the french article which is about to be classified as a good article. --82.127.88.191 17:47, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
