File:Beefcake the Mighty (Gwar, Sweden Rock).jpg

The photograph seems to have been taken in Sweden. Under Swedish law, clothes are often copyrighted by the tailor. See for example NJA 1995 p. 164 (knitted tunic) or RH 1995:128 (various jackets). The clothes that this person is wearing look very artistic, so there should be no doubt that they are copyrighted, and the clothes seem to be an important part of the image. I think that we need permission from the tailor in order to keep the image here. Stefan4 (talk) 17:52, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

Maybe, but the person and the clothes photographed are american, not swedish. Progenie (talk) 22:09, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

The photograph would still need to be free in Sweden since the photograph comes from Sweden. --Stefan4 (talk) 22:33, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

So, we have to delete all the photos taken in Sweden like this? Progenie (talk) 22:55, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

Possibly. --Stefan4 (talk) 13:34, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
