[edit] Summary

Portrait of King George IV, painted by Sir Thomas Laurence. Portrait of George IV of the United Kingdom in the robes of the Order of the Garter as Prince Regent, 1816, by Sir Thomas Laurence.

From Vatican Museums Online: "The painting, signed and dated 1816, shows the Prince Regent, the future king George IV of England, and it was probably given by him to Pius VII ( pontiff from 1800 to 1823) after his ascent to the throne of England (1820) in the climate of cooperation that was established between the United Kingdom and the Holy See on the morrow of the fall of Napoleon."

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain, and that claims to the contrary represent an assault on the very concept of a public domain". For details, see Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain.

Please be aware that depending on local laws, re-use of this content may be prohibited or restricted in your jurisdiction. See Commons:Reuse of PD-Art photographs.
