Descriptive Catalogue, no. 128: 'In a landscape lighted by the moon, at the door of a cottage surrounded with trees entwined by the ivy and the vine, stands the goddess Ceres, her head encircled with ears of corn, holding in one hand, the cup out of which she drinks, and a lighted torch in the other. The old woman, supported by her crutch, holds a lighted candle in her hand; her back is towards the door of the cottage, which is half open, and she is waiting till the goddess has drunk, whilst the child, who is beside her, is ridiculing Ceres, who to punish him, afterwards transformed him into a bat. Several kitchen utensils are scattered over the ground, near the cottage'). Handwritten note in copy of catalogue at The Hague, RKD: Ô14 h. 12 P.'

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:
Public domain

The author died in 1707, 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.

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.
