Object history
English: The painting was transported from artist's studio in Paris to Warsaw in 1781. Archival data tell us that owing to its large size the canvas was for some time kept in the workshop of Mateusz Tokarski, conservator and custodian of the Stanislas Augustus Poniatowski Gallery. Subsequently, it was transferred to the studio of Franciszek Smuglewicz at the Royal Castle in Warsaw. In 1799, immediately after Wilanów was taken over by Aleksandra and Stanisław Kostka Potocki from Izabela Lubomirska, David’s work found itself in the palace, where it remained until 1939. During the German occupation the portrait was taken to Germany and then, together with other wartime loot, it was kept in the Soviet Union; in 1956 it returned to Poland.

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 1825, 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.
