Notes

Original in the Royal Collection: RCIN 401025 (Millar cat. 887) Princess Helena, Queen Victoria’s third daughter, was born on 25 May 1846. Winterhalter painted a series of portraits of Queen Victoria’s children in their early years, intended to be seen as roundels. This portrait of Helena (born 1846) was painted in March 1849, when the Princess, the Queen’s fifth child and third daughter, was three years old. It is signed and dated but now listed as ‘previously attributed to Winterhalter’. Thomas Fairland, who died of consumption in 1852, reproduced in lithography royal portraits by Winterhalter and Sir William Charles Ross.

[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:
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.


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.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
