Depiction of Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl as a human in the Durán Codex.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Detail of an illustration from folio 228 of the Durán Codex, a 16th-century Mexican manuscript, depicting the ancient ruler of the Toltecs Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, who was believed by the Mexica to have been the human form of the god Quetzalcoatl. Diego Durán, writer of the manuscript, claims in the text following the illustration that this picture is based on one seen in a "very old an ancient" manuscript from Mexico City.
Español: Detalle de una ilustración del folio 228 del Códice Durán, un manuscrito mexicano del siglo XVI, mostrando al antiguo gobernante de los toltecas Topiltzin Quetzalcóatl, quien los mexicas creían era la forma humana del dios Quetzalcóatl. Diego Durán, escritor del manuscrito, dice en el texto que sigue a la ilustración que la imagen está basada en otra que es vista en un manuscrito "bien biejo y antigo" de la Ciudad de México.

Licensing[edit]

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 for the following reason:
Public domain

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 70 years or fewer.


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).

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.
