Permission
(Reusing this file)

Papyrus: PD-old. Even under UK law, which requires very little originality, it is still the case that no new copyright can be created by a mere mechanical scan. It follows that there can be no new copyright in images such as this that are to all intents and purposes indistinguishable from such a scan.

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:

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".
