Description |
English: Below the title: 'some of the Lieges on their return'. Three ladies, wind-swept, bedraggled, mud-spattered to the waist, walk one behind the other (left to right), facing heavy slanting rain. The last, who stoops to adjust her slipper, takes the arm of a man who holds up a ruined umbrella. The other ladies hold up damaged parasols. All register distress, and wear large dilapidated hats; two have long fur boas knotted round the neck which stream in the wind. A dog plods dejectedly towards them. They pass a high stand crowded with spectators and placarded 'Long May He Rain'. Below it is a dense and stationary crowd holding up umbrellas. See BM Satires No. 16777. 20 September 1831

Licensing
editThis image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
