Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Plate LXII (62): “Chinese Nº 4” from Owen Jones, The Grammar of Ornament, folio edition, London: Bernard Quaritch 1868, scanned from a newer reprint of the book.
That this digital image is scanned from a reprint of Jones’ book, is not a copyright problem, because the original book is in public domain (Jones died in 1874), and so both the reproduction in the reprint and this digital image are in public domain, too. But it is some problem for the image quality: the offset reprint has rasterized the original chromolithographic print, and may have introduced colour changes, too. So a high-quality (!) scan from a good copy of the original 1868 publication could be much better, and very welcome …

Color space
InfoField
This image file uses the sRGB colour space. (Fortunately today most systems and applications respect colour spaces and ICC profiles. But there may still be some exceptions: outdated or misconfigured software can display wrong colours. If you see strange colours or if the picture appears flat and low in contrast, you should try another application or device for viewing it.)

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.

Metadata

This file contains additional information such as Exif metadata which may have been added by the digital camera, scanner, or software program used to create or digitize it. If the file has been modified from its original state, some details such as the timestamp may not fully reflect those of the original file. The timestamp is only as accurate as the clock in the camera, and it may be completely wrong.
