"Among several historic collections, there are 5,000 photographs of
life in the Pyrénées, the mountains that divide France from Spain. The
pictures paint a unique landscape of life in the region at the
beginning of the 20th Century, and were taken by Eugene Trutat, a
former curator and director of a local museum..."

All the photographs seem to be labelled "Fonds Trutat", & are his work
- can we find out when this guy died? Yes we can, as the Americans say
;-)

"Directeur du Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle de Toulouse et figure
majeure du Pyrénéisme, Eugène Trutat (1840-1910)..."

Is 1910 a suitable death-date for public domain in France?
