"The Oberwolfach Photo Collection -
Photographs of Mathematicians from all over the world

"The Oberwolfach Photo Collection is based on Prof. Konrad Jacobs'
(Erlangen) large collection of photographs of mathematicians from all
over the world. In the 1950's Prof. Jacobs started to make copies of
the photographs he had taken and donated these copies to the MFO. In
2005 he transferred his whole collection completely with all rights to
the MFO.

"The Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach gGmbH (MFO) owns
the copyright to most of the images used on this website. Those images
labelled with "Copyright:MFO" can be used under the Creative Commons

Note that photos like this <http://owpdb.mfo.de/detail?photoID=9473>

Only ones like this <http://owpdb.mfo.de/detail?photoID=2598> which
say "Copyright: MFO".

Please fwd to mathematics wikiprojects where relevant.
