public domain art

Re: [spiers] public domain art

Hmmm.. I think at this point the image belogns to the graphic artist...

John

How does someone own an image of French or Russian art
of the 1900's or even let's say some one older like
Van Gogh and assume he has no decendents if I buy a
poster and have a graphic artists make a replica the
image is now mine isn't it???

Hi John,


Do you know of an easy way to learn whether or not certain art is

public domain or not? Specifically, I'm considering Russian and

French art early 1900s.


Thank you in advance,

renee


they don't allow pictures in museums, among other reasons, because your
pictures is your property. image owners control access to the image, and then
sell
copies of the image to which they control access.

Approach this problem another way... find out who holds the image, and then
ask for a license to replicate it... just pay a royalty...

Hi John,

Do you know of an easy way to learn whether or not certain art is
public domain or not? Specifically, I'm considering Russian and
French art early 1900s.

Thank you in advance,
renee
