Notes

Folio Collection: This print was one of a series of ethnographic portraits mounted by J. Barnard Davis in his album, titled Galerie Anthropologique. In January 1883, this album, now held in the British Museum’s Anthropology Library, was purchased by AW Franks for the British Museum, at the auction sale of Davis’ estate.

This print is part of a collection of prints drawn from life and on stone(?) by W.H. Fernyhough, and published in "A series of twelve profile portraits of the Aborigines of New South Wales" by J.G. Austin & Co, Sydney in 1836. The National Library of Australia also own a collection of these prints.

Licensing

[edit]
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

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.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
