Even an unpublished photograph this old is public domain. It should have been tagged both and. We can probably infer that the photographer died before 1937, 60 years after the photo was made. For a modern photograph we would be able to say the photographer definitely owns the copyright on it, but I'm unsure of the state of the law for India (as a possession of the UK) at the time. But that tag is indisputably applicable whether the copyright was owned by the photographer or the subject. TCC (talk) (contribs) 08:59, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
