There is no evidence that this painting is in the public domain. The painter, Keith Martin (artist), died in 1983 WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 00:35, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I received permission from the associate registrar at the Sheldon Museum, who had told me that the estate of the artist closed in 2012 and that the heirs had no interest in keeping up the copyright, putting the works "effectively in the public domain". I also used pictures which were taken by the associate registrar, with their permission, with the only instructions being to site the Sheldon Museum in the article they were used in. If you have questions about the copyright of these works, you can send an email to gellerbee2@unl.edu or contact the Sheldon Museum of Art. CompositionFox (talk) 00:45, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@CompositionFox Please send this information (together with any documents you have to support your case) to COM:VRT. They will then check whether what you have is sufficient and archive the documents for further reference. PaterMcFly (talk) 13:02, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
