The Old Chartist

Summary edit

Description
English: This image, first appearing in the magazine Once a Week on February 8, 1862, served as an illustration to the poem "The Old Chartist" written by George Meredith. The poem, a long-winded sermon on the injustices dealt to the working man, is neatly summarized by Sandys. A single figure in the left foreground, clothed in working man’s garb, is depicted deep in thought. The remaining expanse of the composition is entirely devoted to the detailed landscape in which he stands.

Licensing edit

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1904, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
