DescriptionWm Miller 1826 (small).jpg	English: The man in the picture is the father of my great-great-grandmother and his portrait, in a handsome walnut frame, has been in the possession of my branch of the family since the 19th century (presumably it belonged to his daughter Ellen Crowfoot, nee Miller). Although this is a common enough situation, it does seem that Wiki's system for checking copyright is rather inflexible in this respect. I have learned in my sixties to use Wikipedia, WordPress and Facebook, but your instructions for image copyright left me frustrated, exhausted and confused. To demonstrate goodwill and attempt to conform to your rules I have contacted your volunteers about this issue. John Crowfoot (talk) 17:13, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
