Title
Cut and come again.
Description
English: Two men sit opposite each other at a sparsely laid table. A grinning waiter stands behind the table holding two tumblers on a salver. The stout host (right) carves a single chop; his lean and melancholy guest holds up a knife and fork, watching the dish disconsolately. A bracket clock (right) shows that it is 4.30. The feet of the seated men are cut off by the lower margin. Below the title is engraved: 'Come Sir you don't Eat - Oh 'tis a most excellent chop - Waiter bring the gentleman some more bread, I'll just take this morsel, Sir - I'm afraid you'll make but a Poor dinner - Waiter bring the cheese.' 1 January 1791

Licensing[edit]

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original 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.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
