Yes, in theory, public domain means there is no copyright. However, there have been cases in which works that were clearly in the public domain have been given "restored" or "retro-active" copyright, making it potentially troublesome.
Also, there are other non-copyright issues in some works, including the possibility of personal rights for an image of an individual, including the right of privacy, the right of publicity and commercial use of the image (e.g., to suggest sponsorship).
You should also consider the fact that "public domain" in one country does not necessarily imply public domain in all other countries. A work could be copyrighted in one country and not copyrighted in another.
