• Photographs on wall is not an explanation for its license status. It may still protected by copyright ...Captain......Tälk tö me... 16:12, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
• No, now the house and the paintings are both open to public; painting is about 50 years old and it's not bound to any copyright according to the head of monastery with whose permission Ive taken this. --AshLey ^Msg 06:57, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
• Commons:COM:FOP#India is claimed to be similar to Commons:COM:FOP#United Kingdom. Murals are not supposed to be fine in the United Kingdom, so maybe they aren't fine in India either? --Stefan2 (talk) 21:37, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
• But, there is no specific copyright holder for this picture. Anyway, if you still consider that the photo infringes copyright law, you may delete it. -AshLey ^Msg 08:10, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
• The copyright holder is presumably the person who painted the mural, or, if he is dead, the heir of this person. --Stefan2 (talk) 09:50, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
• The monastery staff was unable to trace it since the painter was not a well-known artist but just an amateur. No problem, follow the rules. --AshLey ^Msg 11:57, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
• Well, too bad for you, then. The copyright expires in the United States 95 years after publication, and painting it on the mural seems to count as publication according to the American definition of publication. You wrote that it was "more than 50 years old", so there is no evidence that it is at least 95 years old and so it would have to be treated as copyrighted in the United States. If painted anonymously, the copyright in India expires 60 years after publication, but painting it on the mural presumably doesn't count as publication according to the Indian definition of publication, so it seems that the 60 years haven't started yet. The copyright law of India doesn't seem to contain any provisions which allow unpublished works to enter the public domain. --Stefan2 (talk) 21:57, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
• I don't like to take it personally; it's just bad for Wikipedia and open world. Delete it! AshLey ^Msg 06:23, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

• Dubious own work since the image also appears on Facebook.[http://www.facebook.com/bobbybones5] Stefan2 (talk) 20:00, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

• This is my photo, I'm a DJ, I did an interview with the subject, Mr Bones and I took the photo then. Do you need me to verify this somehow like get his manager to say its my photo and I have the copyright on it? She arranged the inteview and allowed me to take a few photos.

• For files which appear elsewhere on the Internet, you should follow the instructions at WP:CONSENT to prove that the image on Facebook really was taken by you. Or the Facebook user who uploaded the image to Facebook could add a statement to Facebook that the Wikipedia upload is legit. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:18, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

• Thanks Stefan! I will mail the WP:CONSENT to sort this out! ---Aspyinthehouseoflove (talk) 15:33, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

• The formulation "Private Photograph" implies "unpublished photograph". Unless published before 1923, it may be copyrighted in the United States. Stefan2 (talk) 21:38, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

• Dear Stefan - Thank you for your kind comment. I am sorry for the misunderstanding. The private photograph (original negative is the private collection of Wartenberg Trust), however the photograph was published in Germany (as a postcard) in the year of creation. Wartenberg Trust owns the largest collection of these photographs and original negatives. Copyright in the US expired and the image is free.

• The formulation "Private photograph" suggests "unpublished photograph", but the template says that it was published before 1923. Besides, this doesn't seem to be a US work, and it was created in 1922, so if it was first published at least one year after creation, there is a high risk that the copyright was restored by the URAA.
