Hi, I have changed the copyright tag to public domain because the author died more than 70 years ago. It would be great if you could find out who the original photographer was, because the image is probably even in public domain 100 years. I do not think you can release it under GFDL, because you are not the author of the picture (making a copy of an existing picture does not constitute authorship, see Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp.). Best regards, rimshots^talk 12:28, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
