Summary[edit]

Author
Engelmann, Graf, Coindet, and Co; H. C. C.
Description
English: 'Ah! the Navy arn't what it was!' (Greenwich Pensioners)

Two Greenwich Pensioners lamenting changing times and standards. The one on the left is in right profile with his hands behind his back, has a peg-leg right leg and a shade under his hat band presumably covering the socket of a missing right eye. The one on the right, in back view, leans on a stick in his left hand: the other arm is missing at the shoulder. Both wear blue Greenwich Hospital uniform jackets and breeches, grey stockings and cocked hats. A balustrade similar to that in the Hospital colonnades is lightly sketched in the background.

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.
