Description
English: A Dutch ship at anchor, drying sails

A near starboard broadside view of a small Dutch ship at anchor. The fore and main courses are loosed in the brails and the yards braced round. The topsails are loosed on the tops and are aback. The mizzen yard is lowered.

This is a pencil drawing by the Younger, signed ‘W.V.VJ.’ It is a weak offset worked up with a little pencil lengthening the stern.

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

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.
