"The intention of this Portuguese (also in French) paper is to present the life and the works of Oscar Pereira da Silva and to analyze in more detail the way in which he represented the feminine, in some of his most known paintings, as Roman Slave, Odalisque and Delilah and Samson. The woman represents for the artist sometimes the role of the object of admiration, other times the role of a frightening being, an embodiment of the femme fatale type."

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:

The author died in 1939, 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 80 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 80 years: Mexico has 100 years and Jamaica has 95 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term.

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.
