Summary

Description
Français : Sawtche, nommée Sarah Saartjie Baartman en Europe (ca. 1790 - 1815), dite la Vénus Hottentote, capturée en Afrique du Sud, exhibée comme phénomène de foire puis contrainte à la prostitution, étudiée comme spécimen de "Femme de race Bôchismann" en 1815 par Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire et Georges Cuvier, lequel en déduisit des théories sur l'infériorité de certaines races humaines. Ces images (réunies ici pour la présentation) sont deux planches extraites du tome II des « illustrations de l'Histoire Naturelle des Mammifères ». On les trouve entre les représentations d'un mouflon de Corse (femelle) et d'un entelle (mâle). Cette illustration est issue d'une peinture de la jeune femme exposée nue dans le Jardin botanique devant des peintres qui dessinent son portrait.
English: Sawtche, named Sarah "Saartjie" Baartman in Europe (ca.1790 - 1815), called the Hottentot Venus, captured in South Africa, exhibited in Europe as a freak show attraction, forced into prostitution, studied as a specimen of "Woman of race Bôchismann" in 1815 by Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire and Georges Cuvier, which deduced theories on the inferiority of some human races. These images are taken from Volume II of the "Illustrations of the Natural History of Mammals." They are found between the representations of a Corsican mouflon (female), and a langur (male)...

Permission
(Reusing this file)
This file might NOT be in the public domain.

It was previously considered to be in the public domain because it is a scan (or similar) by the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, but not everything scanned by the BNF is automatically in the public domain.

It is possible that this file is in the public domain for other reasons, for example because it was published a long time ago (anything before ca. 1900 is most likely ok) or because its author / artist / photographer died over 70 years ago and it was published over 95 years ago. In such cases, a new rationale should be applied, and a different license tag (see Commons:Licensing and valid license tags at Commons:Copyright tags) should be used.

If the file is not found to be in the public domain, it might be nominated for deletion (NOT by any automatic process, but manually).

See below for the previous rationale (not applicable anymore).
