Notes This was published in the Brush and Pencil, June 1900. The article was talking about Tanner and his works. To be published there, the painting needed to be at least a few months old. It can be estimated to be from about 1899. The subject place was named in the article, Czernay la Ville.[1]

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 1937, 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 70 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, 1929.

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.
  1. Helen Cole (June 1900). "Henry O. Tanner, Painter". Brush and Pencil 6 (3): 104. Brush and Pencil Publishing Companey. "The landscape reproduced is some of Mr. Tanner's summer's work at Czernay la Ville, an hour's ride from Paris, and proves that if he had chosen to remain simply a landscape painter, as he began, he would have achieved more than ordinary success. This spot, famous as the home of Voltaire in his later years, and from which he addressed so many of his charming letters to women, seems to have inspired Mr. Tanner to do some extremely good work, both in landscapes and biblical compositions."
