This is a photograph by English photographer E. O. Hoppé, showing British king George V. and dated to 1934. There are no details on time and place of first publication.

As Hoppé was English, unless we have evidence (which we don't have in this case) that the place of first publication was the US, presumably British copyright applies as far as Wikimedia Commons is concerned. The photo is still protected in the UK because Hoppé died in 1972, and it is also still protected in the US (until the end of 2029) because the URAA restored its US copyright. So the file should be deleted; it can be restored in 2043. Rosenzweig τ 16:28, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
