| Other information |
This image is considered to be public domain in Switzerland per Blau Guggenheim v. British Broadcasting Corporation, which asserted that the image is not creative enough. However, it is presumed to be copyrighted in the United States, as such a distinction for "simple" photographs does not exist in U.S. copyright law (which applies to Wikipedia or its affiliates), it is unclear whether it is below the U.S. threshold of originality, and this case law only applies to Switzerland. This image was previously hosted on Wikimedia Commons under the presumption that its lack of copyright applied worldwide. |

 | This image is a faithful digitisation of a unique historic image, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who created the image or the agency employing the person. It is believed that the use of this image may qualify as non-free use under the w:Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on the GSD or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. Please remember that the non-free content criteria require that non-free images on The GSD must not "[be] used in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media." Use of historic images from press agencies must only be of a transformative nature, when the image itself is the subject of commentary rather than the event it depicts (which is the original market role, and is not allowed per policy). |
| If this tag does not accurately describe this image, please replace it with an appropriate one. | |
