Title
Naval Monument, Washington, D.C..
Description
English: The back says: Naval Monument, near the western entrance to the Capitol. It was erected by the officers of the Navy in memory of their brother officers who fell in the war with Tripoli. That is apparently the oldest military statue in the U.S., carved in 1806 or so in Italy and brought to the U.S., originally at the Navy Yard. In 1830, it was moved to the west terrace of the Capitol, which is where the above photo is from. Another photo of it here. In 1860, it was moved to the grounds of the Naval Academy in Annapolis, where it still is today. Lots of photos and information on it here on dcmemorials.com. - (lightly edited from remarks by User:Clindberg, originally made at User talk:Jmabel/Stereo cards of Washington, D.C..

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
Public domain
This media file is in the public domain in the United States. This applies to U.S. works where the copyright has expired, often because its first publication occurred prior to January 1, 1929, and if not then due to lack of notice or renewal. See this page for further explanation.

United States
This image might not be in the public domain outside of the United States; this especially applies in the countries and areas that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada, Mainland China (not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany, Mexico, and Switzerland. The creator and year of publication are essential information and must be provided. See Wikipedia:Public domain and Wikipedia:Copyrights for more details.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
