Notes

Summary of J. Rowlands 'Drawings by German Artists and Artists from German-speaking regions of Europe in the Department of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum: the Fifteenth Century, and the Sixteenth Century by Artists born before 1530', London, BM Press, 1993, no. 220 : 'This drawing together with Sl,5218.13; Sl,5218.10 and Sl,5218.143, are similar in style and technique and may be considered together. The group has been generally accepted as by Dürer, drawn around the time that he travelled to the Netherlands. The Tietzes rejected the attribution in favour of one to Sebald Beham; but this view does not hold up on examination of drawings by Beham dated 1520, which are dissimilar to the present group in style. Winkler suggested that these drawings should be considered in relation to Simon Bening's draughtsmanship. There are, in any case, indications that Dürer's drawings greatly impressed the Flemish artists he met on his tour of the Low Countries.'

[edit]
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original 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 100 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 tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
