Notes

(Text from 'From Manet to Toulouse-Lautrec', BM 1978, cat.93) This print was re-used for the cover of a sheet of music published by Bosc; written for the piano by Ad. Gauwin the piece is entitled: 'All Right - Polka-Mazurka - Dansée par Jane Avril au Jardin de Paris'. To fit in the lettering the composition had to be extended at the bottom and sides. It was printed in an edition of unknown size. Both Wittrock and Adriani state that these impressions were printed in olive green ink, however this is in a red-brown.

The declaration - 'tout exemplaire tiré sans la musique est la propriété de l'auteur' - is a reminder of the commercial considerations that lay behind Lautrec's song-sheets.

[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 70 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.
