Summary[edit]

Description
Svenska: Sannolikt Dowlat Gate, en av stadsportarna till Teheran. Port med kolonner och mosaik. En grusad väg leder fram till den. Utanför porten några träd. I förgrunden en man körandes en hästvagn. (Enligt anteckning under bilden, sannolikt gjord av Sven Hedin, skulle detta vara Shemiran Gate (Schimran), men vid jämförelse med andra bilder verkar detta vara felaktigt. Teherans stadsportar är omdiskuterade. Inga av dem finns kvar idag. På 1800-talet fanns åtminstone 6, troligen fler. Andra namn på Shemiranporten är Derwazèh-i-Chimrân (Darvazeh/Porte de Chimrân).
English: Note: the original description by Sven Hedin, claiming photo shows Shemiran Gate, is certainly wrong because of several reasons:
  • Gate's shape and tiles fit with other historical photographs which are either described by several primary sources or identified as Dowlat Gate (Naser Wall).
  • Shadows toward east fit for Dowlat Gate in late afternoon time, and can not fit for Shemiran Gate by any chance because its inner facade is orientated toward southwest (implying shadows toward southeast which is impossible due to the Alborz position).
  • Perhaps the strongest evidence is another historical photo, available online, which shows the snowy Alborz mountains more clearly and fit for contemporary photos with indisputable south-to-north viewpoint. This again fits only for Dowlat Gate, not Shemiran Gate and its southwest-to-northeast viewpoint.
  • An obvious south-to-north viewpoint (snowy Alborz mountains) indicates that photo shows inner facade (no moat nor bridge) of one of two northern gates, i.e. either Dowlat Gate or Yusef Abad Gate, and the latter is already identified.

Licensing[edit]

Public domain
This Swedish photograph is in the public domain in Sweden because one of the following applies:
  • The photograph does not reach the Swedish threshold of originality (common for snapshots and journalistic photos) and was created before 1 January 1974 (SFS 1960:729, § 49a).
  • The photograph was published anonymously before 1 January 1954 and the author did not reveal their identity during the following 70 years (SFS 1960:729, § 44).

For photos in the first category created before 1969, also {{PD-1996}} usually applies. For photos in the second category published before 1929, also {{PD-US-expired}} usually applies.

If the photographer died before 1954, {{PD-old-70}} should be used instead of this tag. If the author died before 1926, also {{PD-1996}} usually applies.
You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
