(underline added)) This image is not part of that collection and, indeed, is tellingly sourced to Getty (not the LoC) where it is indicated to be rights managed.

File:Haumea brilla con hielo cristalino.jpg[edit]

The image doesn't come with a valid free license, because SINC adds additional license terms that are not compatible with CC. This has been established at Commons:Deletion requests/File:EightTNOs.png and Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Haumea SINC files. This applies to all images that have been added to Category:Haumea SINC files since the files in that category have last been removed. Relevant discussion can also be found at User_talk:Antonsusi#The_license_of_File:Haumea_y_sus_lunas.png. The legal owner of the image (SINC, or Pedro Lacerda personally) is unclear, and we should err on the safe side. As far as I can tell, since the previous deletion discussions, the Haumea image has been removed from all other relevant derivative images on Commons, so the deletion should have minimal impact.

This work does not reach the level of originality necessary to trigger copyright protection: it is simply a freshly carved block of marble on the sides. The sculptor, in fact, died shortly after beginning to carve it (which is why the marble block was dedicated to the deceased sculptor, as stated at the base). Furthermore, even if it were a creative work, the economic rights would belong to the commissioner, and the commissioners are the anarchists of Carrara, who, not recognizing the state law, release their works into the public domain. 79.32.62.89 09:30, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously, it's time for another Cloud Gate DR. I've tried to be as generous as I felt was reasonable about only including the images that violate the copyright in this sculpture.

For context, en:Cloud Gate is a public sculpture erected in 2006 in McCormick Park in Chicago. It is not only copyrighted (with no FOP for sculpture in the US), but the City of Chicago has licensed it from the artist, and requires permission for any commercial use of photographs (which is incompatible with Commons).

I've tried to weed out the ones where either the Bean is a de minimis aspect of an image of the park itself, or where it's shape is not visible and it's only 'a mirrored object'. Most of these are simply not okay.

  • I have sought permission via email from the author (Anish Kapoor) to retain my photo, as there is no FoP for sculpture in the US. The attempt to remove nearly all remaining depictions of Cloud Gate is sudden and troubling. -- adsitm 16:48, 15 Dec 2016 (UTC)
I'm sorry that you find this 'sudden and troubling', but I suggest looking at the history of this DR page. As you will see, nearly all images of this work have been deleted on a periodic basis for half a decade now (previously, 'all' images were deleted, but those DRs were filed for the 'category' instead of just files in it, and are thus not here). That copyvio images are sent to DR is nothing novel, this is just something that most people don't realize is copyrighted and like to photograph, to the extent that photography of it is discussed in it's article.

In File:The Bean and McCormick Tribune Plaza.jpg, the bean is de minimis, image hardly even has the bean in the photo. The sculpture is not even visible in File:Tented cloud gate.jpg. File:Cloud gate construction.jpg is simply a photo of a construction site, the sculpture had yet to be erected. It is inarguably de minimis in File:2005-10-13 2880x1920 chicago above millennium park.jpg. It is also minimus in File:Millennium park,chicago.JPG. It is hardly even visible in File:Millenium Park (7391867314).jpg. Seems to be de minimus in File:Bean from Kemper Tower (14958184744).jpg. Also, hardly the primary focal point of the image File:Chicago Bean.jpg. Not at all included in the image File:Cloud gate, Chicago skyline.jpg, as far as I can tell (not sure why it is in this category). Certainly not included in the image File:2008TIBE Day5 Hall1 ThemeSquare On the Road with Cloud Gate.jpg (should not be in this category at all). Not the primary focal point of the image File:The Bean - Millennium Park - panoramio.jpg.

@SecretName101: Considering File:Cloud gate construction.jpg, in this photo, I see a cross section of what looks like one of the sculptor's ribs, with cross-supports. This looks to me like derivative work of the sculptor's copyrighted mechanical drawings.   — Jeff G. ツ 01:20, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The deletion of File:2005-10-13 2880x1920 chicago above millennium park.jpg would be particularly catastrophic, and utterly unnecessary. This is a valuable (and widely-used) image, in which the sculpture inarguably is de minimus. SecretName101 (talk) 04:28, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete all as blatant derivative work copyvios. DarwIn TOO is no longer relevant if this sculpture by its copyright-conscious artist w:Anish Kapoor has caused hot water to several users in the past, most notably NRA (National Rifle Association) when they included an image of this artwork in their video. See [4], [5], and [6], which I used as sources for another entry under "United States" in w:Freedom of panorama enwiki article and its Tagalog Wikipedia translation. All non-trivial images of this sculpture must be removed (US de minimis is much sharper, see COM:DM United States, it uses "triviality" concept than "incidental"). JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 02:30, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JWilz12345: TOO does matter here; I could for example extract one of the squiggly lines from Donald Duck's head and it would suddenly fall below TOO. So just because the work as a whole is above TOO, doesn't mean that a small portion of the work is necessarily also above TOO. For images like File:The Bean Chicago United States Travel Photography (112096191).jpeg, the shape of the outline is almost certainly below TOO. So the artist here has essentially created an algorithm to transform the surrounding Chicago skyline, in the form of a mirror reflection. The question becomes: Does the creator of this algorithm have enough creative input to have a copyright stake on its output, which was chosen by the photographer? -- King of ♥ 04:39, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@King of Hearts: it seems we are entering another part of the gray area of the no U.S. freedom of panorama for any protected public artworks concept. The sculpture may be a simple kidney-shaped bean that is "ordinary" in the eyes of most people, though it has created headaches for one end-user (National Rifle Association). Kapoor himself is a noted litigous artist, and one attorney asserts that only the City of Chicago has the right to commercially use images of this copyrighted work. Perhaps COM:Project scope/Precautionary principle may roll in? JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 04:48, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Part of PCP is that the likelihood of the creator suing should not be taken into account in these decisions. That's why we kept the monkey selfie. In some of these closeups, I just don't see anything copyrightable. -- King of ♥ 06:00, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is no freedom of panorama for all copyrighted artworks in the United States, see COM:FOP US. US de minimis is sharper (COM:DM United States), as it uses "triviality" concept instead of "incidental".

Still another set of derivative work copyright violations. No FOP of any sort for copyrighted public works in the U.S. except architecture, and sculptor Anish Kapoor does not allow free culture (commercial) reuses of visual appearances of "his" artwork! See also above nominations. American de minimis uses triviality concept instead of incidental/accessory concept like those in Europe or much of Asia.

There is no freedom of panorama for copyrighted public art in the United States, and none of the nominated images show the sculpture in a trivial manner (U.S. de minimis is too narrower than European ones). This sculpture has been the subject of a copyright lawsuit by its living sculptor, Anish Kapoor, against a commercial user, NRA. See also the following resources regarding Kapoor's lawsuit against NRA: Artnet, The Guardian, and BBC.

Files in Category:Cloud Gate 13[edit]

Several new files have been added that populate this category. I'm also tagging several older files that haven't been discussed before to gather consensus on whether they should be kept on de minimis grounds.

At issue is that these files depict Cloud Gate, a copyrighted sculpture permanently installed in the US where there is no freedom of panorama for public art. Quoting an earlier successful deletion request, "this sculpture has been the subject of a copyright lawsuit by its living sculptor, Anish Kapoor, against a commercial user, NRA. See also the following resources regarding Kapoor's lawsuit against NRA: Artnet, The Guardian, and BBC." IMO the litigousness of the copyright holder should not affect our consistent application of standards around copyright law but it's been brought up before so I suppose it's worth bringing up again.

First, there is one photo that is entirely of Cloud Gate for which a de minimis rationale would not apply:

Second, there are several photos in which Cloud Gate appears at a distince within the larger context of the setting. A de minimis arguement could be made for these, and we have kept two files in the past (File:2005-10-13 2880x1920 chicago above millennium park.jpg and File:Millennium park,chicago.JPG) on these grounds. However, in both of those cases Cloud Gate is a significantly smaller and less focal portion of the image.

Third, several photos depict a portion of Cloud Gate up close, often with the inclusion of other elements in the foreground or background. Do these files qualify as de minimis inclusion of the copyrighted work? Consider this file which had most of Cloud Gate coropped out to focus on the background elements instead.

Finally, one photo is simply a selfie taken by way of the mirrored surface of Cloud Gate. This might be argued to be entirely a photo of the sculpture, or to be a completely de minimis usage. In either case, I'm nominating it here for consensus:

Any of these files that aren't deleted (or that are partially cropped and saved) can be added to Category:Incidental views of the Cloud Gate. Thanks! Bobamnertiopsis (talk) 17:37, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]


I disagree that the statue is a "clear focal point" of either File:Chicago skyscrapers on a rainy night (52036718532).jpg or File:Bilde(62) (801715).jpg. I would keep both of those. SecretName101 (talk) 19:48, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Questionable provenance. Wikipedia notes at en:WP:SPORTSKEEDA that the source website used here is generally unreliable due to a consensus that there is little or no editorial oversight over the website's content, which is largely user-written; would need some confirmation that this was a genuine Florida police mugshot and not a photo from some other context. Uploader has run into copyright issues before with non-free pictures of streamers uploaded to Commons to be the lead image for enwiki articles like "Nerd"; this one was uploaded as the first, best, most representative photo for the "Mugshot" article.
