Description
An unusual self portrait by the artist Hendrik van de Sande Bakhuyzen. He has pictured himself in a meadow full of cows and sheep. On the right the field is bordered by a wood, while in the distance a river flows past with boats reflected in the water. The artist is seated on a tree trunk wearing his best suit, with his painter's case on his knee. He is busily painting the large mottled cow in front of him - and glances towards the viewer who seems to look over his shoulder towards the animal. In this painting Van de Sande Bakhuyzen is explaining who he is: a painter of country scenes. In the foreground he has signed his initials in his top hat: vd S B.[3]

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

The author died in 1860, 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.
