Summary

Description
Svenska: För att förbereda en översättning av Dag Hammarskjölds bok "Vägmärken" har den brittiske författaren W. H. Auden kommit till Stockholm. Auden och Hammarskjöld var personliga vänner och svensken hade själv uttryckt om att få Auden som översättare för en anglosaxisk upplaga. Den över västvärlden så berömde poeten är underligt okänd i Sverige men att han bör vara en kongenial tolkare av Hammarskjöld framgår bland annat av att han har innehaft lärostolen i i poetik i Oxford.
Bilden: W. H. Auden skriver in sig på Grand Hôtel.
English: To prepare a translation of Dag Hammarskjöld's book "Road Signs", the British author W. H. Auden came to Stockholm. Auden and Hammarskjöld were personal friends and the Swede himself had expressed a desire to have Auden as a translator for an English edition. The poet so famous in the western world is strangely unknown in Sweden, but that he should be a congenial interpreter of Hammarskjöld is evident from the fact that he has held the chair in poetry in Oxford.

Public domain
This Swedish photograph is in the public domain in Sweden because one of the following applies:
  • The photograph does not reach the Swedish threshold of originality (common for snapshots and journalistic photos) and was created before 1 January 1974 (SFS 1960:729, § 49a).
  • The photograph was published anonymously before 1 January 1954 and the author did not reveal their identity during the following 70 years (SFS 1960:729, § 44).

For photos in the first category created before 1969, also {{PD-1996}} usually applies. For photos in the second category published before 1929, also {{PD-US-expired}} usually applies.

If the photographer died before 1954, {{PD-old-70}} should be used instead of this tag. If the author died before 1926, also {{PD-1996}} usually applies.
You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years.
