Laurent de LaHire: Abraham Sacrificing Isaac 1650

(Muslims believe that it was Isma`il who was being sacrificed, though this is not explicitly stated in the Qur'an.)

Note that although U.S. case law allows older paintings like this to be reproduced without observing copyrights for photographs of it, the photograph is copyrightable in other countries, and may well under copyright. If you wish to publish it worldwide, you may need to secure publication rights. The source of this photograph has not been given. It is housed at:

Musée des Beaux-Arts d'Orléans
1, rue Fernand-Rabier 
45000 ORLEANS
à l'att. de Rachel Droulin

Tel : 02.38.79.21.55

Art Resource (artrec.com) was unable to secure rights to any photograph of this painting from this museum, and when emailed, there was no reply. When phoned and asked if there are any English speakers present at the museum, this writer was greeted with a curt "No." and a dialtone. Agruably, this is the finest picture of Abraham in a pose where he might be readily recognizeable based on the image alone.

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of an original two-dimensional work of art. The original image comprising the work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain This image (or other media file) is in the public domain because its copyright has expired.

This applies to the United States, Canada, the European Union and those countries with a copyright term of life of the author plus 70 years.

Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Côte d'Ivoire has a general copyright term of 99 years and Honduras has 75 years, but they do implement that rule of the shorter term.

Under United States copyright law, originality of expression is necessary for copyright protection, and a mere photograph of an out-of-copyright work may not be protected under U.S.copyright law. This photograph was taken in the U.S. or in another country where a similar rule applies (for a list of allowable countries, see Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag#Country-specific rules).
This photographic reproduction is therefore also in the public domain.
