I am a Thorpe fan as well, and I have seen that image of Thorpe before. It's taken from the start of the 1,500 meters during the pentathlon. The link shows the same image and talks about the details of the 1,500 meter race from which the image was taken.

I thought I had seen that image on a postcard previously. SGC shows one of card "99" from the 1912 Olympics as being graded. Is that yours? Anyway, the link provides some interesting information about the image.
