Christie's -copyright

Sorry; I have very little knowledge about copyright; I see that there are a lot of pictures from Christie's https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_from_Christie%27s

But is it possible to upload images from here? Huldra (talk) 23:13, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

The general idea is that a photo of a 3D object (such as a stela) is a creative process, and therefore for such photos both the object and a photo must be out of copyright. For 2D object such as paintings the process is not creative, and therefore if a painting is out of copyright its photo of any provenance can be uploaded on Commons. I am not so sure about the books (I hope someone will give an explanation), butreliefs and jewelry unfortunately can not be uploaded on Commons unless the photo is old or a photographer has released it under a free license.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:22, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, User:Ymblanter; sigh, I suspected that was the case, thanks for confirming it, cheers, Huldra (talk) 20:51, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Category:Magdalena Strozzi's portrait paintings by Raffaello Sanzio

Message :no wikidata found, I think there is a link which is "Portrait of Maddalena Doni (Q2607055)"

I don't know how to fix up

--Io Herodotus (talk) 04:17, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

@Io Herodotus: Wikidata is one of our sister projects, so you have an account there, even if you've never edited. Its interface and scope are pretty different from Commons, so it may be a bit confusing at first how to add a new item, but that is the way to fix this issue. I'll add it now and let me know if you have any questions about Commons or Wikidata. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:23, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you very much, there is no village pump for Wikidata. --Io Herodotus (talk) 07:53, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

@Io Herodotus: , happy to help, mon frere. Wikidata's equivalent is d:Wikidata:Project_chat. Heads up that we are also discussing on the talk page of the Village pump, which is really for talking about the Village pump itself. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 08:01, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
