Description
English: The steamship 'Glasgow' on fire off Nantucket, 31 July 1865: passengers and crew rescued by the 'Rosamund'

Ship portrait. This painting has a received attribution to 'T. Butterworth' - presumably Thomas Buttersworth, who cannot have painted it since he died in 1842. The American location of the subject at least makes it more likely that it might be by his son and pupil James Edward (1817-94) who emigrated to America in 1845-47 and thereafter worked largly in West Hoboken, New Jersey, but this remains to be confirmed one way or the other.

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.
