Summary

Description
English: Sikh men of Macau [archaically spelt as 'Macao'] with Chinese wives and their mixed-race children, Khalsa Diwan Macau, Macau, China, 27 March 1927. Photograph depicts the Sikh Sangat of Macao, with Chinese wives and children. The Sikh men in uniform have hand colouring applied to their turbans in the form of three green stripes. There are inscriptions in Punjabi along the bottom of the photograph and a stamp applied to the top from which the photograph title was derived. A translation of the Punjabi text is as follows: "This is a picture of the Sikh Sangat of Macau. Some of the Sikhs are sitting along with their Chinese Sikh wives and children." The photo was donated to the U.B.C. Library by Barj Dhahan, co-founder of the Canadian Indian Education Society.

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.

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.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
