Object history This drawing was thought to be the one sold by the artist to Thomas Edward Plint for 40 guineas in mid-February 1859. Plint died the following year. This drawing appears to have been commissioned by Colonel Gillum directly from the artist in the mid 1860s and Gillum bequeathed it to the BM. For further discussion of provenance see Gere 'Pre-Raphaelite Drawings' exh. BM, cat.no. 23.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1882, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
