The
country of origin of this photograph is Italy. It is in the public domain there because its copyright term has expired. According to
Law for the Protection of Copyright and Neighbouring Rights n.633, 22 April 1941 and later revisions, images of people or of aspects, elements and facts of natural or social life, obtained with photographic process or with an analogue one, including reproductions of figurative art and
film frames of
film stocks (Art. 87) are protected for a period of 20 years from creation (Art. 92). This provision shall not apply to photographs of writings, documents, business papers, material objects, technical drawings and similar products (Art. 87). Italian law makes an important distinction between "works of photographic art" and "simple photographs" (Art. 2, § 7). Photographs that are "intellectual work with creative characteristics" are protected for 70 years after the author's death (Art. 32 bis), whereas simple photographs are protected for a period of 20 years from creation.
This may not apply in countries that don't apply the
rule of the shorter term to works from Italy. In particular, these are in the public domain in the United States only if:

Commons:Copyright tags#United States for most cases) and

URAA date of restoration (January 1, 1996) (
17 U.S.C.§ 104A) (in most cases; for all cases, see
Template:PD-Italy/US). If so, please add
{{PD-1996}} in addition to this copyright tag. If the image was created after 1975 or was published after 1977, please add
