Portrait taken from http://bdh.bne.es/bnesearch/detalle/bdh0000035584 This image is in the public domain because under the Copyright law of the United States, originality of expression is necessary for copyright protection, and a mere photograph of an out-of-copyright two-dimensional work may not be protected under American copyright law. The official position of the Wikimedia Foundation is that all reproductions of public domain works should be considered to be in the public domain regardless of their country of origin (even in countries where mere labor is enough to make a reproduction eligible for protection). This image is in the public domain in the United States. In most cases, this means that it was first published prior to January 1, 1927. Other jurisdictions may have other rules, and this image might not be in the public domain outside the United States.

history

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governor-General_of_the_Philippines

The Philippines was occupied by Spain, Britain, United States and Japan during a span of 500 years. The representative of the ruling power carried titles such as Governor General, High Commissioner or Military Governor. This sub-project aims to organize genealogical data on individuals who have served as the Philippines' designated chief executive, before elections were institutionalized.
