Description
The painting shows the Danish king Frederik III near the small frigate Højenhald that played an important part in the defence of Copenhagen. The Swedish attackers had sent a force of 180 men to take or destroy the vessel, but the defenders held out and repelled the attack. A large part of the Swedish forces went along the coast near the southern part of the city, and the guns of the frigate were able to engage them from the flank, with devastating effect, and after four hours of fighting the Swedes withdrew.

Public domain

The author died in 1930, 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.

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.
