Description
English: A Dordrecht kaag in the Texel
This painting has a previously title of 'A Barge on the Texel'. (It may be inscribed on the back, which remains to be checked as does the apparently inscribed date, since not on the image.) Assuming the location is correct it is more accurately described as showing a kaag (a standard Dutch passage or cargo vessel) in the Texel passage between the Zuyder Zee (now the Ijsselmeer) and the North Sea, 'Dort' (the abbreviation for Dordrecht) is painted on the sail suggesting it is a passage boat from that city. Another kaag behind has '60' painted on its sail and similar craft fill the background. A small fishing boat in the foreground appears to have a net out, or may be taking passengers to the kaag. The fact that it is loosely done may indicate it was a study on the spot in Holland, though the careful composition is more like studio work.

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.
