Pablo Picasso paintings
[edit]Pablo Picasso died 1973. His works are still copyrighted just about anywhere in the world. The only exceptions are the U.S., where some of his works published before 1923 might be PD, and Russia, where his works might be PD as pre-1973 foreign works, but even that status is disputed amongst Russian scholars (see e.g. my discussion with Yakudza on that point). (I mention Russia only because some of these images come from the Hermitage in St. Petersburg.) In any case, since neither Russia nor the U.S. are the country of origin of Picasso's works, their regulations are pretty irrelevant. The following images should all be deleted because they are copyrighted artworks:

- Image:Pablo Picasso - The Blind Man's Meal.JPG
- Image:Pablo Picasso- Death of Casagemas.JPG
- Image:Pablo Picasso- Old Beggar with a Boy.JPG
- Image:Pablo Picasso- The Family of Saltimbanques.JPG
- Image:Pablo Picasso. Leaning Harlequin.JPG
Delete all of these. Lupo 08:09, 24 October 2006 (UTC)- Delete. As per nom. Pre-1923 publication in the US is unproven; it is unlikely that these are PD in the country of origin. —JeremyA 15:39, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
