Photo taken by Nicholas Schwartz, d.1945

[edit] Licensing

This image is in the public domain because the Israeli Copyright law of 1911 section 21, (essentially the United Kingdom Copyright Act of 1911 as it was applied to the former British Mandate in Palestine), as amended to August 2005, specifies that:

1. Photographs become public domain 50 years after the photograph was developed from the negative. (See Wikimedia Commons: Category:PD Israel & British Mandate for details).

2. Photographs taken by a public authority become public domain 50 years after the date of publication. (See Wikimedia Commons: Licensing, Israel for details).

This image is covered under copyright in the United States, the European Union, and other countries. However, because its last author died 50 or more years ago, it is believed to be in the public domain in a few countries, including Canada, China, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, South Korea, and possibly Australia. See Wikipedia:Copyright situations by country for more information. If you want to re-use the image, we recommend that you consult your country's laws regarding copyright term expiration.

Note: This template must be used in conjunction with a fair use tag. It is not valid as a license. Please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as well as the source of the work and information on who owns its copyright in the United States.

[edit] Rationale

Historically significant This is a photo of a famous destroyed building and therefore no opportunity now exists to create a free-license variant of this image.
