Summary[edit]

Description
English: Design for a Stained Glass Window with a Swineherd. Pen and ink and brush, grey wash, over preliminary chalk drawing, 31.5 × 21 cm, Kunstmuseum Basel. This is one of Holbein's earliest designs for stained glass windows, dating from the period when he lived and worked in Lucerne. At this time he used a richly varied wash, rather than the unifying washes of his later style. The design might be part of a series on the theme of the seasons or on the story of the Prodigal Son (Müller, 198).
Date c. 1518–19

Licensing[edit]

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 1543, 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.
