Permission: This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason: Public domainPublic domainfalsefalse This file is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is a legally valid French identity photograph. It is therefore compliant with strict guidelines on composition, lightning etc. that preclude any of the intellectual input necessary under French law to yield a copyright. This holds true whether the photograph was created by photo booth or with intervention of a human operator.
