[edit] Licensing

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.

Flagging as PD, because picture is approximately 122 years old (i.e. even if photo was taken by a 20-year-old photographer at the time, would now be 102, ergo very, very unlikely to be alive, and family portrait photographers do not retain copyright to the images they sell to portrait sitters in the first place.) NB: It also predates 1923, so it's PD anyway.
