would you consider this picture as a good form of a full planche?

this picture is of Alberto Braglia:

 

"Alberto Braglia (March 23, 1883 in Campogalliano (Modena) – February 5, 1954) was an Italian gymnast. He won gold overall at the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm, 3 olympic gold medals throughout his career.^[1]"

would you consider this as the correct form of a full planche or is this more a so called "banana planche"?

 

was the form of gymnastic exercises in the past a little different from the form nowadays?

Not now, not in 2014.

You already know the answer to this question.  Gymnastics strength training has come a very long way since the 1800s.

In 2050 they'll have live laser scanning for the judges to instantly view all angles so they can tell you how far away from perfect you were in degrees. Oh yeah, and robots...they'll have lots of of those involved too.
