• • But in the United States, and likely many other places, this is certainly in the public domain, because they do not have the ability to claim copyright on works which are over 300 years old! --Fastfission 01:59, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

The two-dimensional work of art depicted in this image is in the public domain in the United States and in those countries with a copyright term of life of the author plus 100 years. Under American 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 American copyright law.
