Notes

When first exhibited in 1920 the present work hung alongside another oil by the artist entitled The Rice Family (now in the collection of Ferens Art Gallery, Hull as An Artist and His Family (The Rice Family)). The similarity in costume and facial features between the sitter in the present lot and the standing figure in the second oil suggests he may be the young Master Rice. Austrian artist Bernard Rice (1920-1998) studied in London at the Westminster School of Art and then the Royal Academy Schools between 1919 and 1922.^[1]

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:

The author died in 1937, 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 80 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.
