Object history bequeathed
Notes Used the uncropped version of the image with the original borders by Alanen that Ateneum provided on another page. Seemingly the same photograph, just uncropped. An expert on Alanen describes here: https://areena.yle.fi/1-50495504 that the borders are generally part of his artwork (in a meta sense to strengthen the feeling of the work itself being a work, an illustration). Some are much more detailed than others but I generally aim to keep a little bit of these plain ones too when possible.

Permission
(Reusing this file)
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

The author died in 1920, 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".
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.
