The uploaders states that the author is unknown but coincidentally he claims this image being his "own work". The image itself looks like a derivative work of any photograph. The true copyright status remains unclear. High Contrast (talk) 17:27, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not really sure. María Concepción Loperena died near to 1835, according with Spanish Wikipedia article, then, all pictures of her made when she was still alive, are under public domain. I guess (but I don't know) this one was made when she was alive. ·×α£đ·es 17:36, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
Keep pic in public domain, it's simply a scan of a en:Daguerreotype, after over 100 years daguerreotypes look this way if they aren't handled with a lot of care. No copyrights possible. --Umschattiger (talk) 18:03, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- It seems like the user took their own photograph of the daguerrotype and uploaded it, thus "own work". If the description of the original is accurate, then yes it would be PD, and so would this upload per PD-Art (though in some jurisdictions, there may actually be a copyright on this photograph too as a derivative work instead of a copy, so the additional licensing statement may be helpful in those jurisdictions). Keep I think, though it would be nice to have more information on the daguerrotype itself and where it is from, so to have better documentation that it is actually of the person claimed.
