Notes This study is not mentioned in Delteil/Godefroy's catalogue on Besnard ('Le Peintre-Graveur Illustré', Vol. XXX). Campbell Dodgson's acquisition index card indicates that this print has been falsely attributed to Besnard, despite Beurdeley having acquired it from Le Garrec in good faith. The print was featured in Print Collector's Quarterly, Vol. VIII, p. 264 in April 1921, attributed to Besnard. However, in Vol. IX of the same journal, on p. 101, in February 1922, an editor's note explains that the print was wrongly attributed to Besnard, due to the artist's own disclaimer. The journal had published the print on the basis of the details in the sale catalogue of the collector Alfred Beurdeley (7me. vente, 2nd and 3rd July, 1920, lot 396). The print was bought at that sale in good faith by Le Garrec, the Paris dealer, and sold by him as a Besnard to Dodgson, who lent it for reproduction in the journal. The print's authorship is still uncertain.

[edit]
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

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 70 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.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
