I stand corrected. Thanks Pranesh.

That is, undoubtedly, copyrightable (and hence, copyrighted as per our law).

Not really. "Copyrightable" is more or less synonymous with copyrighted, 
since anything that is copyrightable is automatically (without any form 
of registration) granted copyrighted in all countries that recognize 
copyright (thanks to the Berne Convention and the TRIPS Agreement).


You don't need to do anything to assert copyright.  On the other hand, 
you need to do a positive act to relinquish copyright.


This reversal of copyright (presumed to be under copyright, rather than 
presumed to be under public domain) is one of the greatest problems with 
the current global copyright regime.

I normally would hold that this is so, and have done so for years.

However, given the recent interpretations by the Delhi High Court of the 
Supreme Court decision in EBC v. Modak, I'm not so sure any more.


I think it is now arguable that a plain photograph that is meant to 
merely be a representation of the underlying painting is not "original", 
lacking "skill and judgment" (or "modicum of creativity", based on which 
test you believe EBC v. Modak lays down as the test for 'originality').[1]


I doubt any court would grant a scanner copyright over unedited scans.

Regards,
Pranesh

 [1]: While it is not arguable whether EBC v. Modak (INSC) lays down 
exercise of "skill and judgment" as the test for originality or "modicum 
of creativity", it is very clear that it squarely rejects the older 
"sweat of the brow" test.

Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] National Museum, New Delhi

2011-06-29 Thread Noopur
I just feel this is getting slightly trivial. In case of applied art,
copyright is shared. I think we've had a good round of discussion around
that. In case of photography, a photograph is considered as a stand alone
object of art unlike earlier discussions on whether it is a mere document
reproducing  an artwork. That is the nuance I was trying to point at.

Also, I am not comfortable with the jabbing that goes on in these threads.
Email has become a nuisance since half of the comments consist of taking
digs at each other. Why can't we all just be pleasant and informative?
Yours sincerely

As I understand it, a photograph in itself is a work of art. Hence, it is a
separate object. While the copyright for the work of art lies with someone
(artist, institution), the right of the photograph lies with its artist
(photographer). If the object of art is under copyright, its photography
would also have been prohibited by the museum.
