The Coronation of Haakon VII and Queen Maud of Norway

	This image is in the public domain because the Norwegian Copyright law (§43a) specifies that images not considered to be "works of art" become public domain 50 years after they were created, as long as the photographer has been dead for 15 years. Under the former photo law, protection ended 25 years after creation, provided that more than 15 years had passed since the photographer's death or the photographer is unknown. This image is in the public domain if this older term already had expired as of 29 June 1995. PD-Norway Public domain in Norway //en.wikipedia.org/File:H7_cor.JPG
This file is NOT necessarily in the public domain in the United States because a non-simple image can only be in the public domain in the U.S.: if it entered the public domain in Norway prior to 29 June 1995, for images whose term had already expired as of that date, and 1st January 1996 thereafter , or when, after that date, its copyright term expires in accordance with U.S. law. Information about the creation date and creator should be provided. If the image is not in the public domain in the United States, in addition to the license tag for its status in Norway an appropriate fair use license and rationale should be provided, or the image should be proposed for deletion. If the media is in the public domain in both Norway and the United States, it may be transferred to the Wikimedia Commons. Note: If this image is in the public domain in the U.S., modify the end of the copyright tag from }} to |commons}}. This will replace the preceding U.S. copyright notification with a nomination for this image to be moved to the Wikimedia Commons. To uploader: Please provide where the image was first published and who created it, and when the photographer died.

I believe the copyright on this image has lapsed due to the time since it was made. According to Norwegian copyright law, the following applies:

Sec. 43a. A person who produces a photographic picture shall have the exclusive right to make copies thereof by photography, printing, drawing or any other process, and to make it available to the public.

The exclusive right to a photographic picture shall subsist during the lifetime of the photographer and for 15 years after the expiry of the year in which he died. but for not less than 50 years from the expiry of the year in which the picture was produced.

This image was created in 1906 so unless the photographer was both very young and remarkably long-lived, I believe one can make a reasonable assumption that the requisite 15 years has lapsed. Valentinian 20:21, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
