Description
From the Arken exhibition catalog: In Gerda Wegener’s “To kokotter med hatte” from the 1920s, it is probably Lili in the blonde wig with flowers and feathers in her hat, looking at us with seductive bedroom eyes. In her hand, she is holding the symbol of the female sex, a rose, the fragrance of which permeates the image and probably also helps to attract the other woman’s attention. The two are standing close to each other and are brought even closer together by the composition’s close cropping of the motif (Andrea Rygg Karberg: “Når kvinder maler kvinder” (When Women Paint Women), Arken’s exhibition catalogue, pp. 20–21).

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 1940, 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 80 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.
