Notes
English: Sir Alfred Munnings painted two members of the Canadian Forestry Corps sawing down a tree, and the felled wood stacked and ready for transport. Established in 1916, the Canadian Forestry Corps provided 70 per cent of all lumber to the Allied war effort. The Canadian Forestry Corps invited Munnings to tour their work camps, and he produced drawings, watercolours and paintings in France in 1918.

It is also in the public domain in the United States for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1959, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 60 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

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.
