There is a website standrewsny.org where I assume this photo is posted. However, I couldn’t find it there. I credit it to the Downton Abbey Fan Page on Facebook.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003, Gore Verbinski)
08/04/2024
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is a 2003 film directed by Gore Verbinski; produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films and distributed by Buena Vista International.
Created and written by Ted Elliot and Terry Rossio, the film is the first chapter of the Pirates of the Caribbean series and inspired by the Disney Parks attraction of the same name. The main cast includes Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow, Geoffrey Rush, Keira Knightley, Orland Bloom, Kevin McNally, Jack Davenport and Jonathan Pryce. Positively received by critics and the public, the film received several awards and five nominations for the 2004 Oscars (best leading actor, best make-up, best sound, best sound editing and best special effects).
Caribbean, circa 1720. Little Elizabeth Swann and her father, Governor Weatherby Swann, are in the English ship HMS Dauntless taking them to Port Royal, when a little boy named Will Turner is brought aboard. When Elizabeth notices that Will has a gold locket with a skull engraved around his neck, she takes it from him and hides it because it may be proof of Will's piracy.
On the day of his investiture, Norrington declares himself to Elizabeth, who however, suffocated by her too tight corset, falls from the battlements of the fort and ends up in the sea; by doing so, she activates the medallion, which attracts the Black Pearl, i.e. the ship seen eight years earlier. Meanwhile, Elizabeth is saved by a bizarre character who has just arrived in the city, the pirate captain Jack Sparrow, who, chased by the guards, manges to escape by shielding himself with Elizabeth hut then, finding shelter in Will's blacksmith's shop, clashes with him and ends up imprisoned. That same night, the crew of the Black Pearl attacks Port Royal, seeking Elizabeth's gold locket; the latter is captured and taken aboard the ship to meet Captain Barbossa. Through parley, Elizabeth asks the pirates to leave the city in exchange for the medallion and introduces herself as Elizabeth Turner, wanting to hide her identity as the governor's daughter.
