Summary edit

Description
English: Depicts the New York Yacht Club schooner Faustine departing on her first transatlantic crossing to England in 1873. She is recorded to have made the passage in 18 days. Faustine was designed and built at Bristol by John Brown Herreshoff, the older brother of Nathaniel. She was a 79'6" LOA x 19'8"B x 7'4"D keel schooner owned and raced by G.P. Russell, member of both the New York and Eastern Yacht Clubs. Shown here with her original schooner rig, she was converted to a steam yacht and lengthened at Cowes in 1879. She leaves the harbor wearing her N.Y.Y.C. burgee and private pennant along with the stars and stripes. Illustrated in Yachts on Canvas by James Taylor, Page 59.

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 1886, 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.
