Description
English: Greenwich from the north-west

A swim-head barge, on the right, is heading downriver in a stiff south-westerly breeze, probably at the top of the tide, with the hull of an unrigged sailing vessel being towed upriver beyond. Two boats in the left foreground, with red-clad crews, may be racing upriver. The ship moored in the left distance is the training vessel 'Arrow', attached to the Royal Naval College for about 20 years following its move to Greenwich in 1873. The College (formerly Greenwich Hospital) lies beyond.

[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.
