Description
English: Fleuron from book:
A guide to classical learning: or, Polymetis abridged. Containing, I. By way of introduction, the characters of the Latin poets and their Works. The Rise, Growth, and Fall of the Polite Arts among the Romans. The Usefulness of Antiques towards explaining the Classics. A true Idea of the Allegories of the Antients, and of their whole Scheme of Machinery, or Interposition of the Gods; with Remarks on the Defects of our best Allegorists and Artists for Want of such an Idea. II. An inquiry concerning the agreement between the works of the Roman poets and the remains of the antient artists, in order to illustrate them mutually from one another. Being a Work absolutely necessary, not only for the Right Understanding of the Classics, but also for forming in Young Minds a True Taste for the Beauties of Poetry, Sculpture, and Painting. The fifth edition. Illustrated with twenty-eight prints from original Antiques, and more particularly adapted to the Use of Schools And Academies. By N. Tindal, Translator of Rapin.

[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

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.

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.
