    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 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, 1931.

    The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".

    Captions

    The sin of the calf was considered the most grave sin of the people of Israel, immediately after hearing the Ten Commandments, and because of it God wanted to destroy them.
