Description
English: Chief Steward of the 'Empress of Asia' (1913)

An informal portrait of two men on the port side of the Promenade Deck of the passenger liner 'Empress of Asia' (1913). The man in uniform is likely to be Mr T. J. Bridge, Chief Steward on the maiden voyage of the 'Empress of Asia'. The other man is perhaps another Canadian Pacific Railway Co employee, or the photographer's assistant. Both men are leaning against one of the Engelhardt collapsible lifeboats.

In the Bedford Lemere & Co daybooks this negative is recorded as showing the Chief Steward and 'not in set'. This suggests that the photograph was not one of those submitted to the client at the end of the assignment.

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

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.
