Description
English: Lieutenant Commander Norman Wilkinson's large oil painting depicts the sailing of Canada's First Contingent of troops, over 31,000 strong, from Canada to England. After taking soldiers, horses, and equipment on board in Quebec City, the liners carrying the First Contingent formed up with British warships in Bay of Gaspé, Quebec, before leaving for England. Along the way, they were joined by another liner carrying soldiers from Newfoundland and by several other warships, including one of the Royal Navy's largest battlecruisers, the 26,000-ton HMS Princess Royal, seen here in the foreground.

It is also in the public domain in the United States for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1971, so 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 50 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.
