| Description |
English: The Mad Woman of Douai image: A scene set in the ruins of a church. The East-facing fall of the apse is all that remains, and the crucifix still intact. A group of peasants stand around a woman sitting on a chair next to a table. She has an expression of horror frozen on her face and her hands clasped tightly in her lap. Two of the peasants lean close to her, while another pair stand behind with their heads together. To the right three others stand in an attitude of sorrow. A soldier stands leaning on his rifle beyond them. The decayed corpse of a soldier lies on the ground in front, his pose mirroring that of the soldier standing above. In the left foreground there is a grave marked with a helmet, and the boot of the dead soldier protrouding from the end. The devastated remains of Douai lie beyond this scene, and the dark shadows of mountains in the distance. |

Licensing
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
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.  |
