File talk:Serfoji II and Amar Singh of Tanjore.jpg

Fair use justified

The image is a low res version of an old painting. {{pd-old}} or {{pd-art}} should apply to this. - Parthi ^{talk/contribs} 05:27, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Lo res considerations have nothing to do with this image. This has been pompously released on public domain. Not even fair use. Also the picture(a colour image as it is) obviously doesnt qualify for pd-old. Pd-art states "The two-dimensional work of art depicted in this image is in the public domain in the United States and in those countries with a copyright term of life of the author plus 100 years.". Now prove to me that this applies first to India and then to this image. Sarvagnya 08:41, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't know how one 'pompously releases' something to PD! The license tag should probably be {{pd-art}}. Read Image copyright tags. It says {{PD-art}} — for images of works of art where the artist died more than 100 years ago.. I will change the license accordingly. Parthi ^{talk/contribs} 09:26, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

This photograph of an uncopyrighted painting (from 1797!) clearly meets the criteria, the very purpose, of PD-art, despite any claims by the museum. I'm removing the speedy delete template.--Pharos 20:51, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
