Description |
English: Satire on frequenters of public houses: a group of customers standing around the counter of a bar peer at the young woman serving; an elderly officer in profile to right leans inwards lifting a spoon from a custard cup to his mouth; a small man on the left, standing on tip-toe, is holding the "[Public] Ledger", another the right, wearing spectacles, reads the "Morning Post2, a copy of "The Gazetter extraordinary" lies on the floor and a dog urinates on it; another dog leaps up at the bar where a book has attracted his attention. Bottles, bowls, glasses and several lemons are arranged on shelves behind the bar. 1778

Licensing
[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. ![]() |
