Object history
Français : Exécutée en 1851 par le graveur néerlandais Johan Hendrick Hoffmeister (1823-1904), c'est le portrait de Comte que le philosophe tenait pour le mieux réussi. Effectué d’après un daguerréotype de 1849, il est peut-être la représentation la plus fidèle de Comte. C’est en tout cas l’image la plus diffusée du philosophe. Son exécution a été financée par le Baron de Constant Rebecque, un officier de la marine hollandaise à la retraite, disciple positiviste et l’un des 13 exécuteurs testamentaires du philosophe. D’après Comte lui même, le portrait a été effectué à La Haye, et lui et Hoffmeister ne se sont jamais rencontrés en personne. Il en reçoit plusieurs exemplaires de la part de Constant Rebecque en 1851 puis en 1853.
English: Executed in 1851 by the Dutch engraver Johan Hendrick Hoffmeister (1823-1904), it is the portrait of Auguste Comte that the philosopher himself considered the best. Made after a daguerreotype taken in 1849, it is perhaps the most faithful depiction of Comte, and in any case the most widely publicized image of the philosopher since his death. The lithograph's execution was funded by the Baron de Constant Rebecque, a retired Dutch navy officer and positivist disciple of Comte. According to Comte himself, the lithograph was created in The Hague, and he and Hoffmeister never met in person. He received several copies of the portrait from Constant Rebecque in 1851 and 1853.

Licensing

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

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.


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 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).

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.
