Title
Englishman at Paris. 1767
Description
English: Satire contrasting English and French styles of dress. A stout middle-aged Englishman wearing a heavy coat and three-cornered hat and carrying a stick, is walking to left in a Parisian street with a small boy in attendance. Passers-by are amused by his lack of elegance: on the left, a hairdresser wearing his hair in a large queue, with scissors at his waist and an apron, carries a parasol and raises his hand in surprise; a fat monk grins; an elegant man driving a cabriolet and his footman dressed in furs smile; a worker wearing loose trousers and wooden shoes folds his arms and stares; two dogs follow the Englishman. 1782

[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 file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

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.
