. English: A cropped image of 'Adam lay ybounden', a 15th Century Middle English poem which forms part of the famous Sloane Manuscript (BL MS. 2593), held in the British Library. Digitised by the British Library, the 2D manuscript itself is in the public domain by virtue of its age, and this image has been cropped to remove any 3D elements of the original higher resolution photograph. As this manuscript is held within the British Library and due to its age and fragility is unlikely to be released for public photography, this low resolution image is felt to be a fair 2D representation of a historic, one-off manuscript for the purposes of criticism of the text by the not-for-profit Wikimedia Foundation, in the same manner as other historic single 2D artefacts such as File:Ellesmere Manuscript Knight 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 domainPublic domainfalsefalse 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 70 years or less. 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 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Côte d'Ivoire has a general copyright term of 99 years and Honduras has 75 years, but they do implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims
