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 in its source country for the following reason:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in Hong Kong because, according to Section 17 in Chapter 528 (Copyright Ordinance) of the Law of Hong Kong, the copyright of this work had expired in Hong Kong. This is either because the period of 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which the author died had already ended, or the work is of unknown authorship and the period of 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which the work was first made has ended. Please also see Wikipedia:Copyrights.

Works of Hong Kong origin that have entered the public domain in the U.S. due to certain circumstances (such as publication in noncompliance with U.S. copyright formalities) may have had their U.S. copyright restored under the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA) if the work was under copyright in Hong Kong on January 1, 1996.
