This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain in its source country for the following reason:
Public domainPublic domainfalsefalse
This Canadian work, of which the author or authors are unknown, is in the public domain in Canada because:
It was published before January 1, 1970; or
It was created before January 1, 1945; or
75 years have passed since the end of the calendar year of its creation, without it ever having been published while still in copyright.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain". This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
