Notes The current title for this painting is not the artist's original title. In a June 23, 1905 diary entry, Paxson wrote, "I began working on a new oil, Turning the Worm, a buffalo hunt where the buffalo has turned on the hunter." A November 24, 1905 diary entry indicates Paxson had finished the painting, calling it When He is Bad. An inscription on the reverse reads When He's Mad. Further research may reveal which title is correct.

The author died in 1919, 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 100 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".
