This photo prominently features a sculpture by a currently living artist. Freedom of panorama in Sweden only permits depiction of copyrighted works if they are permanently placed in a public location. This does not apply here, as the work was only temporarily placed in this location. According to this blog post, it has been in private possession on private property since at least 2006.

  • Keep, since the main point of the picture is the palace; this is de minimis. I would guess that it was impossible to get a picture of the palace from this angle in 2005 without getting the hand in the picture. Yes, there's a note about the hand in the description, but that's more appropriately seen as a "By the way," rather than trying to concentrate on the hand.

Since you mention it, I should point out that I was the one who added the note in the description. It was certainly possible to get a picture of the palace without the sculpture, even from the same angle. This photo could be cropped to completely exclude the sculpture and still include the same view of the Palace. To me, it seems like the sculpture is purposefully included in the frame, rather than incidentally. LX (talk, contribs) 05:29, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
