Notes

The print is one of two in the BM 1911 set (the other is 1911-4-12-179) which do not have the Bertaut blindstamp, unlike the other fourteen prints in the same BM set (1911-4-12-165 to 180). It is assumed that they form part of the same overall 1864 series, and that therefore this print is after Delteil's third state, rather than being the first state. For information on the series, see 1911-4-12-165.

See also 1865-1-14-80, which may also be an impression the 1864 edition, or as in this case, may be the first state, as it too lacks the Bertauts blindstamp.

[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.
