Description
English: King Will[ia]m 4th & Queen Adelaide landing at Greenwich, Augt. 5th 1830

A boldly coloured and very animated popular print showing William IV's first visit to Greenwich as King, with Queen Adelaide. A Marine guard lines the Five-Foot Walk and water stairs, at the head of which the Hospital Chaplain appears to be standing to greet the royal pair who are being greeted by a VIP party, presumably including the Governor of that time, Sir Richard Keats. The two barges in the centre, one flying the Royal Standard having brought the King, appear to be Admiralty vessels. The plate, numbered 45, is hand-coloured.

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.
