COMMENT
It’s always been a mystery to me why some museums do not allow photography. I’ve heard various reasons through the years visiting museums and art galleries. The two main reasons given are:
- Over time, the light of the flash will damage the paintings and drawings
- Copyright issues
I understand and fully agree on the first reason. I am stymied on the second (unless you are of the same mindset as the sculptor who sues photographers). The act of taking a photo of a painting is one thing. Using this photo to do some illegal copyright activity is another thing.
Anyway, interesting article over at BlackStar Rising on this subject by David Saxe.
