This image has been assessed under the valued image criteria and is considered the most valued image on Commons within the scope: A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. You can see its nomination here.

This is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: Library of Congress imprint removed, bleed through partially addressed, spots corrected, stains partially corrected, and ink staining around text reduced. Histogram adjusted and saturation reduced. One of several possible ways to restore this text file, and (unlike most of my work) the goal here was not absolute fidelity, but to preserve the feel of an open book ready for perusal while improving legibility. Actual eighteenth century typography was not as clean as this restoration and text bleedthrough was actually a normal occurrence. The original can be viewed here: Vindication.jpg. Modifications made by Durova.

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 1797, 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, 1930.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
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.
