Description
Français : Fleurette à la fontaine de la Garenne, tableau d'Aurore de Lafond de Fénion présenté au Salon de Paris de 1822 (no 758 du catalogue). Le livret de l'exposition présente ainsi le thème de la peinture : "Fleurette, la première femme qu’ait aimée le prince de Béarn, depuis Henri IV, est peut-être la seule de ses maîtresses qui l’ait aimé comme il méritait de l’être ; mais il oublia bientôt Fleurette. L’ayant revue quelque tems après, sa passion se ralluma, il lui donna un rendez-vous à la fontaine ; mais quand il y vint, il ne trouva qu'une flèche et une rose qu'elle tenait de lui, avec un billet. La pauvre Fleurette s'était jetée dans la fontaine." Un critique d'art de 1822 décrit ainsi le tableau "Mademoiselle Lafond nous montre cette jeune fille, pleine de la plus tendre mélancolie, appuyée contre un arbre, au bord de la fontaine de la Garenne, et méditant son funeste projet. (Annales de la littérature et des arts, 1822, p. 358) Au pied de l'arbre, la rose, la flèche et le billet sont clairement visibles. Le tableau est encore dans son cadre en bois d'origine, avec au bas une inscription Société des amis des Arts 1822. Le catalogue d'Osenat, où le tableau a été vendu aux enchères le 2 février 2020 pour 750 euros, donne au tableau le titre descriptif : Jeune paysanne accoudée à un tronc d'arbre.

Licensing edit

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

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.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).

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.
