@Jane: Yes, that's pretty much correct. The URAA is a pain in the ***

January 1st was Public Domain Day [1] and after xx years of copyright, it
expires on the first of January of the year after. As result hundreds of images
were restored on Commons on the 1-1-2014, but many of them did not get a place
in articles on Wikipedia and her sister projects.
Nice. It would be good to add a link at the top to
Category:Undeleted in 2014
as well, or even to transclude all images from that category.

Romaine,
I was wondering about the same thing as Yaroslav.
As I have understood the URAA stuff up to now, I think a work by
Kandinsky (died Dec 1944) is problematic but this one for example is
