English: Satire on the fear of an elegant Frenchman accosted by a belligerent London butcher. Street scene with a butcher on the right, offering with his fists to fight the Frenchman who turns away with his hands in the air; behind him is an open door with a sign above reading, "Foreign Gentlemen Taught English"; two prostitutes laugh and one pulls his pig-tail; a dog takes a piece of meat from the butcher's tray; after Collett. 1790

[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:
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. ![]() |
