The eyes have definitely been messed with...
It was not uncommon back in the early 1900's for studio photographers to enhance someone's eyes if they appeared too light or washed out due to bad lighting or poor photography skills... I've seen them done like this many times, the dead giveaway being the strong degree of black they used to darken the pupils. When comparing the overall color tones in the photo, the pupils look unnatural and out of place with the rest of the image... Hard to say for sure who altered the photo, but Not very appealing at that price with those strange eyes......

Best, CSL
