Assuming we don't know who took the picture back in 1941, in the year 2990 there would still be reasonable doubt whether the photographer had died before 2020, which would be necessary to be out of copyright according to the then valid rule of life plus 970 years. -- André Engels, [email protected] _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
