Portrait[edit]

The author of this image from Liechtenstein is unknown, and the image was published at least 70 years ago. It is therefore in the public domain in Liechtenstein by virtue of Art. 34 of the Liechtenstein Copyright Act..
Note that this applies only if a reliable source is cited to indicate that the author is not publicly known; just not knowing who the author is is not enough to qualify the image as public domain. This image may not be in the public domain in countries other than Liechtenstein.

Scanning[edit]

Public domain

This photograph was first published in Liechtenstein. It does not have the individual character required for copyright protection under Art. 2 par. 1 of the Liechtenstein Copyright Act.

The Liechtenstein copyright was taken over by Switzerland. According to applicable case law, the individual expression of thought required for protection is present if the photograph is given an individual character e.g. by the choice of framing, the use of camera settings or the editing of the image. Conversely, it is not present, irrespective of the object and the setting, if the image is a mere "point-and-click" image with no individual characteristics. See Blau Guggenheim v. British Broadcasting Corporation BBC, BGE 130 (2004) III S. 714-720.

According to the Public Domain FAQ published by the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property on its website, "the individuality required for copyright protection is commonly lacking for reproductions [of public domain works] which are as true as possible to the original. In contrast, an artistic photograph of a public domain work can be protected by copyright as a so-called 'derivative work'. [...] Whether a work is two or three-dimensional is irrelevant." (Version of 15 March 2015).
