Hi
I am wanting to self publish an art book and some of the pictures I have used are of other peoples paintings, I downloaded them from the internet.
I have not used any of them on the front cover and purely using them as a critque in my art book, when describing art techniques.
If i write a credit page stating who has copyright will this cover me or do I need to contact them for permission? some are old masters so may not be alive!
Thank you for any advice given!
i believe that from those who's alive, anyway, you need permission.
you can also ask the publishing, any publishing, who deal with pictures book.
