Description
English: The Civilian Evacuation Scheme in Britain during the Second World War
Malvern College, a boarding school school for boys, was evacuated to Blenheim Palace, near Oxford, for the duration of the war. The state rooms at Blenheim were converted into dormitories which are also used as classrooms. The boys are seen in a lesson seated on their beds underneath a precious tapestry depicting a famous Marlburian battle scene. Because of the value of many of the works of art and antiques in the rooms, ink was not used in school classes with all work being done in pencil.

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.
