| Description |
English: Scene in St. James's Park, Westminster Abbey in the background (right). A woman walks in profile to the right, her face hidden by a large rucked poke-bonnet with a high slanting crown. She wears a short fur or velvet cape, dark over a light dress, with a projecting skirt above ankle-boots, her hands in a big fur muff. Close behind her walks a man amused at her appearance, his own being more absurd. He has shaggy hair under a tall cylindrical hat, a cape with a fur collar drawn tightly round him, above white trousers pinched at the knee. Below the title:

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.  | ||||
