[edit] Book of Hours
Although this is not the most fanous Book of Hours (that would be the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, I like this image because it gives the viewer a much better feel of the "bookness" of an illuminated manuscript. Too often pages are reproduced in isolation as if they were painted on canvas and hung on a wall. This is used in Book of Hours (Milan, Biblioteca Trivulziana, Cod. 470). I scanned the image from, Illuminated Manuscripts: The Book before Gutenberg by Giulia Bologna, and uploaded it. - Dsmdgold 02:13, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Nominate and
support. - Dsmdgold 02:13, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC) - Very reluctant oppose. I don't think {{PD-art}} applies. The additional pages keep this from being strictly a reproduction of a two-dimensional work. See Bridgeman Art Library Ltd. v. Corel Corporation. —Korath (Talk) 04:48, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Conditional support if the tag can be agreed as appropriate. Circeus 23:31, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)
- reluctant oppose. Unfortunately I agree with Korath. Its may be a grey area between 2D and 3D, but the inclusion of a frame in a photograph of 2D painting is considered a problem and this situation is similar (more accurately, I suspect that the inclusion of 3D elements in the photo makes the Bridgeman Art ruling less applicable, although it probably hasn't been tested in a court case). We could try nominating Image:Les Tres Riches Heurs F2r.jpg instead, but I'm not convinced there is sufficient quality in that scan. -- Solipsist 07:38, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- After some consideration, I'm afraid I agree with Korath also. I'm going to switch the tag to {{fairuse}} and am withdrawing this nomination. I also don't think that Image:Les Tres Riches Heurs F2r.jpg is a good enough scan to be featured. Dsmdgold 13:33, Mar 27, 2005 (UTC)
