Summary

[edit]
Description
English: According to Westcott, Catherine Morris (1990). "The "Parsifal" Influence in the Work of Jean Delville". Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts 3 (1), p. 8; 12 ([1]), this is a blue crayon (blueine) drawing of Jean Delville's wife, Marie Lessine, who served as a model for many of his Esoteric paintings. In this drawing, she is depicted with a Ishtar's circlet, indicating her symbol as a feminine principle or as Isis: a spiritual, eternal feminine according to Delville's Esoteric beliefs; this drawing, in turn, made the artist symbolically become Parsifal.

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

The author died in 1953, 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 70 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.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
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.
