This image is a digitally restored version of
File:Inupiat Family from Noatak, Alaska, 1929, Edward S. Curtis.jpg to remove scratches, spots, artifacts, water or stains, hairs, and overall deterioration. Contrast was decreased. The image was cropped to remove the frame. Remaining edges were filled in or darkened with cloning, burn, and healing brushes. The image was not stretched, warped, or rotated as it was already straight during the scanning process. Restoration work was performed on the original TIFF file downloaded by the U.S. Library of Congress Prints & Photographs Online Catalog.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate
{{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see
Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar,
{{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See
