The sculpture was completed in 1934 by Francisco Canarozzo (1888–1964). There is no freedom of panorama in Argentina for non-architectural works. The copyright term of the country is 70 years, and the image can be undeleted in 2035 A1Cafel (talk) 03:40, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

Mr Spitzner had one or more children, they are the heirs, the Urheberrecht passes on to them and cannot be transfered to a museum. Only the legal heirs can decide over the license, not the museum that may have the usage rights, and much less the photographer who took a picture of the painting. Unless of course your VRT correspondent who happens to have the same first name as the son happens to BE the son. --2003:C0:8F35:A00:98CE:ADB4:13D:504B 21:53, 22 March 2025 (UTC)

Could User:Attis tell if this is their own work or not? Samoasambia 19:08, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

I was asked to compare the images but the link you have inserted doesn't show me images on either Firefox or Chromium. Is the image still visible there? grin 21:09, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
@Grin: Hmm, that's odd. I still see the picture on tramem.com with Microsoft Edge. I just added the page to Wayback Machine if that helps. Samoasambia 12:20, 9 April 2025 (UTC)
These are the same image without question. Unfortunately the image on the wayback machine has no metadata, while the uploaded have some but it's not unquestionably original, for example the date is missing, so I have no real way to tell which was first. grin 21:23, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

@Grin: tudnál segíteni? Bár a két fotó nyilván ugyanakkor, ugyanott, ugyanarról a peléről készült, értelemszerűen ugyanazon fotós által, de mintha nem ugyanaz lenne a kettő, vannak apró különbségek, pl. a pele bal fülénél a levél erezete. Ezen kívül más a két fotó kivágása, mindkettőn vannak olyan szélek, amik a másikon nincsenek. Ez az összehasonlítás tehát szerintem egyik fél irányába sem perdöntő. Azért kérem a segítségedet, mert úgy látom, Attisnak sem erőssége az angol, de azért őneki is írok a magyar wikin, úgy látom, aktívan szerkeszt. Köszönöm, ha időt szakítasz a témára. --Regasterios (talk) 15:07, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

A leírás szerint 2007-es de a kép metaadataiban nincs sajnos dátum.
Viszont kifejezett problémának látom, hogy a feltöltött képeinek összevissza metaadatai vannak: van egy Olympus géppel készült, egy Canon EOS350, meg 3 metaadat nélküli kép, amit a környéken találtam. Nem túl meggyőző, hogy a képeket ugyanaz a személy ugyanazzal a géppel készítette, pedig kb. ugyanakkor. grin 21:16, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
Ez ugyanaz a kép, minden kétséget kizáróan. Olyan nincs, hogy ugyanazokat a száraz leveleket kétszer odaszülje a természet.
Valaki kérdezte már a feltöltőt? Mert ha nem, akkor én a nagyobb képet gondolom eredetinek (levágni egyszerűbb, mint odahamisítani), ami pedig a török úriemberé. grin 21:25, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
