Quote from the description at the National Portrait Gallery website:

This monumental painting records the 1840 convention of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society which was established to promote worldwide abolition. A frail and elderly [Thomas] Clarkson addresses a meeting of over 500 delegates. [...] Haydon later wrote: 'a liberated slave, now a delegate, is looking up to Clarkson with deep interest ... this is the point of interest in the picture, and illustrative of the object in painting it, the African sitting by the intellectual European, in equality and intelligence'.

Dette er en troværdig, fotografisk gengivelse af et originalt todimensionelt kunstværk. Kopier af kunstværket er offentlig ejendom af følgende grund:
Public domain

Ophavsmanden døde i 1846, så værket er også offentlig ejendom i lande og områder, hvor ophavsrettens længde er ophavsmandens levetid plus 100 år eller derunder.

Dette værk er offentlig ejendom i Amerikas Forenede Stater (USA) fordi det blev udgivet (eller registreret hos U.S. Copyright Office) før 1 januar 1928.

Denne fil er blevet identificeret som værende fri for kendte restriktioner under lov om ophavsret, herunder alle relaterede og tilstødende rettigheder.
Den officielle holdning, som Wikimedia Foundation følger er, at "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain, and that claims to the contrary represent an assault on the very concept of a public domain".
