Notes

(Text from 'From Manet to Toulouse-Lautrec', BM 1978, cat.85) This lithograph was commissioned and published by Vollard in his second 'Album des Peintres-Graveurs' in 1897. It was discussed, together with a lithograph by Rodin in the same album, by Mellerio in 'La Lithographie Originale en Couleurs' of 1898. A propos of the Rodin he stated: 'C'est le triomphe du facsimile. Au point de vue de l'estampe, moins une oeuvre originale qu'une restitution chromolithographique excessivement adroit dû à l'imprimeur Clot ... A la même catégorie appartient une lithographie en couleurs, véritable tour de force de métier, executé toujours par Clot, d'après un pastel clair et lumineux de Sisley' (for which see 1949,0411.3408).

>From the appearance of the print Mellerio appears to be absolutely accurate.

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

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 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.
