contemporary is a stupid word because it means both modern and of the time which are completely contradictory

@tauon@possum.city i think the idea is that contemporary of the subject's time and if no subject is specifically provided, the subject is assumed to be the speaker
@piku@blahaj.zone what about "a contemporary photo of (old item)"
@tauon@possum.city i would assume it is at the same time as the old item, for example, a contemporary photo of uhhh a penny-farthing would be taken the penny-farthing was used
else i would just say "a photo of (old item)"
