Notes

One of a series of forty-three plates illustrating Gaspar Gevaerts' "Pompa Introitus"; for comments see 1884,0112.31. For another single sheet impression see 1869,0410.985. The likeness of the Cardinal-Infante was taken from a likeness ('conterfeytsel') borrowed from the painter and art-dealer Salomn Noveliers to be used and copied by Rubens for the decoration. However, Thulden does not stipulate that this is an engraving after Rubens and, moreover, the portrait does not readily correspond with any known painted portrait of Ferdinand by the artist.

Lit: John Rupert Martin, The Decorations for the Pompa Introitus Ferdinandi, Corpus Rubenianum XVI, London, 1972, p. 31.

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.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.
This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

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.
