There are smaller pieces of paper that have been glued to the sides to extend the width of the paper.The scene shows Johnston in the center of the picture leaning on his left elbow facing the viewer. His is holding a sword in his right hand. There is a solder behind him on Johnston's left with his face turned downward. He is wearing a coat and a haversack slung over his shoulder. Behind him is a soldier standing next to a tree and using it to sight his rifle which he is shooting toward the right. There are two other soldiers behind Johnston. The one on the left is leaning toward the right and he has a rifle in his hands. Behind him and directly behind Johnston is a soldier with a feather in his hat holding a spear. In the right lower corner in the foreground is the body of a dead soldier. In the background are "ghost" or shadow images of a battle scene. There is an inscription at the bottom of the drawing. It reads" See Portriat of Johnson (sic)" and "Death of Gen. A.S. Johnson (sic) at the Battle of Shiloh or Pittsburgh Landing." The drawing is signed "Henry Mosler."

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:
Public domain

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.
