[edit] Image:Ogadai.jpg

Is this picture really in Public Domain? But there are simplified Chinese characters printed on the picture, which is surely less than 50 years. I doubt if this picture was taken from some of the Mainland Chinese websites, or was scanned by somebody from a Mainland Chinese publication. -- 218.188.0.150 09:27, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

The picture was drawn by court artists in imperial China. I have a set of playing cards which have the pictures of various Chinese emperors. This picture is a scan of one of the cards. The Chinese text is a just a short description on the cards, and not part of the original portrait. --Yuje 09:39, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

Should WP:IFD be used instead for this purpose? — Instantnood 11:13, July 25, 2005 (UTC)
