The absent man |

Description |
English: A man walks absent-mindedly into a shallow pond, turning his back on the path which leads to a stile (right). His arms are crossed on his chest, a closed umbrella is under his arm. A paper inscribed 'Rights of Man' (for Paine's book see BMSat 7867, &c.) projects from his pocket, showing that he is absorbed in political contemplation. On the left a fashionably dressed couple point at him with amusement, and their small dog barks at him. Trees form a background. L. and W., No. 75. 10 January 1792

[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. ![]() |
