Summary

Description
English: "David Livingstone, 1813 - 1873. Missionary and explorer", a carbon print of a photograph by Thomas Annan, 36.90 x 30.20 cm. Gift to the National Galleries of Scotland by T & R Annan and Sons, 1930
Restoration notes
This was an interesting one. Quality was absolutely superb; detail's incredible. Printing technology is often what holds back image detail in this period, and the paper texture is really pretty much unnoticable at this scale. In any case, this is excellent work. This does show up some flaws. One knee is pretty badly out of focus. The edges had some pretty major damage, lower right hand corner was probably the worst. The background was very dirty - probably because people selectively handled it - but since that's just a smooth bokeh it's not that big of a deal; any minor variance from the original is not meaningful. Some noticable damage around the edges of a sharp transition from light to dark ; that might be some chemical thing, like dye leeching, might just be particularly noticable since it's more precise work; in any case, I fixed it.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1887, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1931.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.

Notes

  1. I'm not sure exactly when this exact copy was printed - but it'd be before 1930 when it was gifted, so it shouldn't have any bearing on copyright
