Description
American Sidewheeler De Ruyter to the Rescue, by Jean Baptiste Henri Durand-Brager. The transatlantic American steam passenger ship De Ruyter, rushing to the assistance of the beleaguered British sailing ship, loch Earn. The De Ruyter a side-wheeler of the Engels line, with its distinctive funnel, was running from New York to Antwerp. The Belgium destination is marked by the pennant on the foremast. The loch Earn had collided with the French steamer Ville du Havre on 22 November 1873. Only a few people were rescued from the French steamer, and most of the survivors picked up by loch earn were transferred to the American ship Tremountain a day later. This painting, directly commissioned by the American ambassador to Belgium, Joseph Russell Jones, as a formal commemoration, marks the heroism of the moment against the primal power of the open ocean, and marks the beginnings of an American-Belgian passenger ship company.

Licensing

[edit]
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 1879, 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.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
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.
Public domain

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 70 years or fewer.

You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.
 Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
