St. Georges Fields, or the posts not wide enough for fatty |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: A very fat woman is squeezing with difficulty between posts through which goes a foot-path. She is being helped through by two men companions, one of whom pulls her, the other (left) pushes her from behind with his closed umbrella. All are dressed in the fashion of the day. Behind them is a board, extending over a gateway in a paling, inscribed "Half Way House Cottrell, From Old Slaughters Coffee House, dealer in Foreign Spirituos Liquors. Dinners Drest on the shortest Notice". Behind are trees, through which appears the "Half-way House". 21 September 1782

Licensing
[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. |
