Title |
The Pleasures of Skaiting - or, a View in Winter |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: A skater lies on his back on the ice, his hat has fallen off, his muff and cane lie beside him. From his pocket projects a paper, "The Art of Rolling made easy". Behind him a lady skates with ease and assurance, her arms folded. Behind her another man lies on the ground. Behind (right) a skater looks at the prostrate man through an eye-glass. In the middle distance two skaters, a man and a woman, face each other. In the background are bare shrubs and trees and a country house. 12 April 1780
Mezzotint with some etching, hand-coloured |

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. ![]() |
