Description

Français : Louis-Michel Lepeletier de Saint-Fargeau (1760-1793), député à la Convention, vote la mort du roi, et est assassiné la veille de son exécution (20 janvier 1793). Considéré comme un martyr, il devient une icône de la Révolution de ce fait.

English: Louis-Michel le Peletier, marquis de Saint-Fargeau (1760-1793), deputy at the "Convention Nationale", he voted in favor of the death of the king Louis XVI (361 pro, 360 contra). On 20 January 1793, the eve of the king's execution, Le Peletier was assassinated. He was therefore considered martyr, and became iconic for the Revolution.

Permission
(Reusing this file)

This file might NOT be in the public domain.

It was previously considered to be in the public domain because it is a scan (or similar) by the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, but not everything scanned by the BNF is automatically in the public domain.

It is possible that this file is in the public domain for other reasons, for example because it was published a long time ago (anything before ca. 1900 is most likely ok) or because its author / artist / photographer died over 70 years ago and it was published over 95 years ago. In such cases, a new rationale should be applied, and a different license tag (see Commons:Licensing and valid license tags at Commons:Copyright tags) should be used.

If the file is not found to be in the public domain, it might be nominated for deletion (NOT by any automatic process, but manually).

See below for the previous rationale (not applicable anymore).

Previous public domain rationale, no longer applicable

The Bibliothèque nationale de France has determined this item is in France's public domain. It is located here.

Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the country of origin and the United States, and must be accompanied one or more valid copyright tags to indicate its status. Absence of such tags may result in a file's deletion.

This is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: Cleaning of spots, dust, dirt, tears and scratches due to age. Correction of levels, (saturation and contrast). With GIMP.

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:

	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. You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.
	This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

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.
