• No FOP in France and no FOP for statues in the US. MGA73 (talk) 14:09, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is one of many pictures in the article on Père Lachaise Cemetery. It is a picture I took myself and have realeased it into the public domain. The picture will be removed as it seems to violate FOP in France. Not only is this not correct, but it should apply to all the other pictures in the article. So as a common courtesy, do not remove just this single image, remove them all. 77.167.212.162 (talk) 15:09, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• It says that this is in the public domain because it was published before 1923, but there is no information on when it was published. It says that it is "scanned from an original carte de visite photo", implying that it was published at some point, although not necessarily before 1923. It also says that it is a "historically significant fair-use image", contradicting the public domain claim. Stefan2 (talk) 21:01, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I've found two published photos, but I can't tell whether the copyright was renewed:

Lewiston Evening Journal 4 March 1932, page 15

The Lewiston Daily Sun 15 January 1943, page 8 --Stefan2 (talk) 14:45, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I gotta say. Given she was 50 in 1900, and she was pretty famous by 1886, I would guess that it's probably pre-1900, 190x at the latest given the poor quality of the photographic reproduction. With respect to aging, look at the 1932 newpaper picture for example. As such, while it's going to be pretty much impossible to prove, I would have though that we'd be a pretty good shot at life+70 for the photographer, irrespective of the publication status pre or post 1923. I don't suppose there is a date or maker's mark on the postcard ? Megapixie (talk) 10:33, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Life+70 in the US is only relevant on images first published after 2001. Works published prior to 1978 get a complex web of protections and exemptions based on publication date and not exceeding 95 years from publication, and works published between 1978 and 2001 get protected until 2048 or longer if their author was alive in 1978.--Prosfilaes (talk) 10:34, 17 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Who is the person on the photo? The file name is "Paul Thayer Iaccaci" and the image is used in the article about him. However, the fair use rationale states that it is a photo of August Thayer Iaccaci, which redirects to August Thayer Jaccaci who is obviously a different person. The source URL suggests that this is Paul and not August. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:20, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
