Description
English: Nicholas Pocock, 1740-1821 (self-portrait)
An informal self-portrait drawing of the marine painter Nicholas Pocock in middle life, perhaps made around 1790 after he had moved from Bristol to London. This drawing may have been made using a mirror on the paper that Pocock is shown holding, which might suggest that he was left-handed though more evidence for this would be needed.

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.
