The
country of origin
of this photograph is Italy. It is in the
public domain
there because its copyright term has expired. According to
Law for the Protection of Copyright and Neighbouring Rights n.633, 22 April 1941
and later revisions,
images of people or of aspects, elements and facts of natural or social life, obtained with photographic process or with an analogue one, including reproductions of figurative art and
film frames
of
film stocks
(Art. 87)
are protected for a period of 20 years from creation
(Art. 92).
This provision shall not apply to photographs of writings, documents, business papers, material objects, technical drawings and similar products
(Art. 87). Italian law makes an important distinction between "works of photographic art" and "simple photographs" (Art. 2, § 7). Photographs that are "intellectual work with creative characteristics" are protected for 70 years after the author's death (Art. 32 bis), whereas simple photographs are protected for a period of 20 years from creation.
This may not apply in countries that don't apply the
rule of the shorter term
to works from Italy. In particular, these are in the public domain in the United States only if:
This work may
not
be in the
public domain
in the United States
because its U.S. copyright was restored by the
URAA
as it was still copyrighted in its source country (
Italy
) on the URAA date (1 January 1996). In most cases, it is
copyrighted in the U.S.
until
95 years
after the year in which it was initially published (exceptions are works published after 1977; see
Commons:Hirtle chart
).
