Summary

DescriptionIcon of Mani 1.jpg	English: Icon of Mani depicted on a hanging scroll, southern China, 14th/15th century. Discovered in 2019 by the professor Yutaka Yoshida in the Fujita Art Museum, Osaka, Japan. 日本語: 大阪市の藤田美術館が所蔵し、地蔵菩薩（ぼさつ）像とされていた絹絵が、マニ教の始祖マニを描いたものだったことが、京都大の吉田豊教授（文献言語学）らの調査で分かった。独りだけを描く独尊像としてのマニ像が確認されたのは世界で初めてという。マニ像は13日から奈良国立博物館での特別展「国宝の殿堂　藤田美術館展」で公開されている。奈良国立博物館や吉田教授によると、マニ像は縦183・3センチ、横67・5センチ。中国で元～明に当たる14世紀に制作されたとみられ、絹地に鮮やかな色彩で描かれている。地蔵菩薩像とされていたが、衣服の特徴などからマニ像と分かった。マニは3世紀にメソポタミア（現在のイラク—）で生まれ、マニ教の始祖となった。マニ教はヨーロッパやアフリカ北部、アジアに広がる世界的宗教に発展したが11世紀ごろから衰退、やがて滅亡した。中国の江南地方では明の時代まで信者がいたといい、仏教風のマニ教絵画が作られている。藤田美術館は、明治期に活躍した実業家の藤田伝三郎や息子らのコレクションを所蔵。マニ像が収集された経緯は不明で、昭和12年刊行の美術雑誌「国華」に写真が掲載されて以降、長らく所在が分からなかった。今回の特別展の準備中、美術館所蔵品の中に確認された。出典：https://www.nara-np.co.jp/news/20190414094444.html

Licensing

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:

	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 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 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. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does 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 of Soviet repressions (more information).

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.
