, DPG17. Other versions of DPG17 by Beechey are NPG 231 and Sir John Soane's Museum 114, although it is no longer clear which of three surviving autograph versions was Beechey's original, nor which versions were exhibited at the Royal Academy (221 The Late Sir. F. Bourgeois, R.A.) in 1813 and the Society of British Artists in 1830 (101). DPG466 is yet another copy.

The author died in 1839, 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".
