Notes |
(Description and comment from M.Dorothy George, 'Catalogue of Political and Personal Satires in the British Museum', VII, 1942) Blum, No. 596. Another (and probably earlier) copy of BMSat 7546 is Hennin, No. 10,544, see under BMSat 7546 A. (Supplementary information) See Dorothy George for an account of the Gillray of July 1789 (BMSat 7546) from which this is derived. This crude etching was probably itself copied from a much finer French version acquired by the BM in 1988 (1988,0514.7). |

[edit]This 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. ![]() |
