Note: though the Smithsonian website calls this pastel Ophelia and dates it ca. 1909, Jean Kling's biography of Alice Pike Barney (Smithsonian Institution Press, 1994, ISBN1-56098-344-2) gives the title Waterlily and identifies it as an illustration for the poem "Rien ne te peut toucher et rien ne t'emeut" in her daughter
Natalie Clifford Barney's 1900 book Quelques Portraits-Sonnets de Femmes. The image has been rotated to the "landscape" orientation shown in the book but is otherwise unmodified.
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 domainPublic domainfalsefalse
The author died in 1931, 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 80 years or fewer.
You must also include a
United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 80 years: Mexico has 100 years and Jamaica has 95 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the
rule of the shorter term.

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.
