Description
English: Saint Barbara, to the left, with her attribute, the tower, in which she was prisoned, behind her. As she was, among other roles, patron saint of soldiers, the statue of Mars is shown in a window of her tower. Saint Elisabeth of Hungary, who gave up her crown to become a nun, perhaps depicted because she was the patron saint of Isabella of Portugal (1397–1471), the Duchess of Burgundy, who supported the Carthusian monasteries in the Netherlands and Switzerland. The Carthusian monk has been identified as Jan Vos (d. 1462), Prior of the Charterhouse of Genadeda — or Val-de-Grâce — near Bruges, and a well-known figure in fifteenth-century monastic life in the Netherlands. Documents relate that the Frick painting was ordered as a “pious memorial of Dom Jan Vos. Most scholars consider this one of van Eyck’s last paintings, begun by him in 1441 but completed after his death in his shop.

Licensing

[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

The author died in 1426, 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 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.
