Notes Lawrence Sully was known to be the lesser artist of the two Sully brothers. His portrait figures show stiff upper bodies, little modeling, and pale skin rendered in light colors. The Huguenots had fled religious and political persecution in France and settled in the United States, where their knowledge of science and industry and their skills as artisans and craftsmen were highly prized.

Licensing

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).
