Title
Beauty's Donation or Feeling and Loyalty
Description
English: A ladies' work-room for providing flannel garments for soldiers. A grenadier stands full-face, wearing a flannel waistcoat; a lady (right) pulls on his breeches, saying, "Our Officers have enough to do to take care of their precious selves poor Souls, not but they can Make a waistecoat or something like it with the help of an Army Taylor." A soldier (right) stands dressed in flannel garments: eyes and nose are visible between conical cap and high collar; he says: "Nice Winter Quarters these." On the left enter two soldiers in uniform, holding muskets; expressions and attitude register reluctance to be dressed. Behind, a tailor's shop-board stretches across the room, on which two ladies sit cross-legged, sewing garments, with the inscription (left): 'Flannel Preservatives. Caps, Chin-pieces, Waistcoats, Drawers, Trowsers, Stockings, Socks, Mitts, &c.' See BMSat 8347, &c. 21 November 1793

[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 70 years or fewer.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.

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.
