[edit] Summary

This image is a hand-coloured aquatint portrait of Yagan by George Cruikshank, as it appears in the frontispiece of Robert Dale's 1834 booklet Descriptive account of the panoramic view &c. of King George's Sound and the adjacent country.

A digital image of the portrait is available from the National Library of Australia (NLA) website. The NLA image contains spurious indexing information along the bottom; this digital image is a cropped version that eliminates this. The original image also has a strong yellow tint; this image has been de-yellowed.

The original image is available at Image:Yagan original.jpg, and a closely cropped version of this de-yellowed image is available at Image:Yagan cropped.jpg.

[edit] Licensing

Public domain This image (or other media file) is in the public domain because its copyright has expired.

This applies to the United States, Canada, the European Union and those countries with a copyright term of life of the author plus 70 years.

Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Côte d'Ivoire has a general copyright term of 99 years and Honduras has 75 years, but they do implement that rule of the shorter term.
