It looks correct to me. The smokebox door hinges are on the fireman's side, and the men's boutonierres are on the proper lapel.

Besides, plates or negatives 'wrong side up' don't usually print clearly, as the light has to penetrate the substrate AFTER passing through the silver, instead of before, so they look murky and blurry.

If you're judging by the writing, it was probably written on the emulsion side of the plate by mistake.
