Madame Ellen Groinn |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: Nell Gwynn reclining on a bank of flowers beside a pool; she wears a lace smock open to reveal her breasts, the lower part of her body partly covered by lace-edged drapery. A curtain above her head is supported by her elder son, Charles, portrayed as a winged putto, while her younger son James, as Cupid with a bow and flaming torch, hovers above, to right. Charles II stands on the far side of the pool, his cloak held by a small boy; other figures emerging from trees behind; in the distance the upper floors of a large house.

[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. 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. |
