Notes

After the portrait by Titian in the Louvre (inv. 753).

This is from 'Le Panthéon français, ou Collection de portraits des personnages célèbres qui, par leurs actions, etc., ont contribué le plus à l'illustration nationale', a series of lithographs by Sudré representing illustrious French figures. The series was issued in twenty-four installments (called livraisons) of five plates each from 1820 to 1827.

The Bibliographie de la France lists the various livraisons as follows: [not all the livraisons are recorded, neither is the exact content of each livraison] - 11 November 1820: 1st livraison, published by Langlumé - 1 June 1822: 2nd livraison (François I, Fénélon, Jeanne d'Arc, Poussin, Racine), 3rd livraison (Henri IV, Sully, Clémence Isaure, Bernardin de Saint-Pierre and St Vincent de Paul), 4th livraison (Bossuet, Monge, Mme de Sévigné, Boileau, Molière), 5th livraison (Louis XIV, Turenne, Marguerite de Valois, Buffon and Grétry) - 20 September 1823: 9th livraison (Eustache Lesueur, Charles Lebrun, Louise Labbé, Bayard and Jean Goujon), published by Villain. - 5 June 1824: 10th, 11th and 12th livraisons, published by Sudré - 22 January 1825: 13th livraison (Abbé de l'Epée, Mlle Clairon, Montesquieu, Caylus, Quinault), published by Sudré. - 5 March 1825: 14th & 15th livraisons, published by Sudré - 1 October 1825: 16th livraison, published by Sudré. - 21 January 1826: 17th livraison, 18th livraison (Massena, Olivier de Serre, M. J. Chenier, Abraham Duquesne and Gaspard de Coligny). - 10 May 1826: 19th livraison; published by Sudré. - 26 August 1826: 20th livraison; published by Sudré

- 30 June 1827: 24th livraison (Tournefort, Lavoisier, J. D. Cassini, Talma and Volney); published by Sudré

[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.
