Right. It’s a public domain picture. Right clink on his link, and save it to your computer. Upload it to a photo service, and have an 8x10 photo or a 5x7 made, get a frame, voila!
Happy printing!
OK, I’ll bite. What makes you think it’s in the public domain?

No signature, no copyright, appears to be very old.
No disclaimer on the site claiming it is their intellectual property.
As long as you are using it for your personal use (not like the people that put it on the website) you are not breaking any rules or denying anyone any profits.

There’s a difference between the fair use of copyrighted materials and something that is in the public domain.

It’s not a big deal, but my antennae go up when someone so clearly states “it’s public domain.” Very likely, it’s not.

Fair enough. But if he prints it out and puts it on a frame in his bedroom, I doubt very much that he is committing a crime, nor is anyone going to come knocking.
But I understand your concern. Point taken.
