Summary[edit]

Description
English: Molla Nasreddin № 29. Molla Nasreddin magazine (in Azerbaijani), published between 1906-1931
Caption: "Baku train station." According to an old Azeri superstition, when one is setting out on a journey, it is considered good luck to pour water behind oneself. An Azeri man here pours water onto the platforms to the shock and dismay of European women, a clear parody of the clash of cultures (European and Asian) and classes in the Caucasus at the turn of the century.

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 1938, 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 80 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. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 80 years: Mexico has 100 years and Jamaica has 95 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term.
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.
