Notes |
(Text from 'From Manet to Toulouse-Lautrec', BM 1978, cat.70) Pissarro in 1896 made an etching of this same subject (D12 3) to which he gave the title 'Quai de Paris à Rouen'. The hotel in which Pissarro stayed in Rouen was on the Quai de Paris, and from his window he could see the harbour (letter 20 January 1896). At this period his eyes gave him much trouble; he could not work out of doors, but had to paint views from windows. The Ashmolean Museum in Oxford possesses a watercolour showing precisely the same view which proves that this lithograph is printed in the correct direction. Pissarro here used transfer paper, as can be seen from the vertical flaw in the image right of the centre. |

[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. |
