[edit] Summary

Portrait of Sir George Turner, former Premier of Victoria, Australia. The date is uncertain, but it is believed to be around the turn of the century, most probably between 1901 and 1906.. It is from the collection of the National Library of Australia. [1] Under Australian law, all photographs taken in Australia before 1955 are in the public domain. This image is therefore in the public domain under both Australian copyright law and US copyright law. The National Library asserts copyright over the image; however, as the image was taken before 1955, and there is no claim of having modified the image on their part, this assertion is incorrect.
