Description
English: 'Vanguard', 'St Vincent' and a Royal Yacht at Spithead, 1850s

William Joy frequently collaborated on watercolours with his brother John. This example, however, appears to be all William's work and he achieves atmospheric effect with delicate blue tones. It is free from the strong greens that sometimes predominate in his work. The artists, who were natives of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, moved to Portsmouth in 1832 and were employed by the government to make drawings there during the 1830s.

Licensing[edit]

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.
