Description |
English: Study for a Trench Mortar Firing at Evening (iwm Art 3910) image: four British soldiers and an officer man a trench mortar position in a wood. Two of the men prepare the mortars, which lie in two lines on the floor of the post, as well as stacked in a position under the parapet to the left. One man stands and loads the mortar into the barrel of the weapon, whilst another kneels behind it and adjusts the trajectory. The officer looks through a pair of binoculars through the wood and across No Man's Land towards three explosions in the distance, assessing the range and accuracy. There is barbed wire in front of the position and the ground is undulating with the trees largely reduced to stumps as a result of artillery fire. |

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. |
