[edit] Italy

I believe that this is the Italian situation:

Symbol OK.svg OK before 1989. Reproduction photography is protected by copyright in Italy, but this right subsists until 20 years have elapsed from the year in which the picture was produced. Article 87, Chapter V, Rights relating to photographs: «[... ] reproductions of works of graphic art [...] shall be considered to be photographs for the purposes of the application of the provisions of this Chapter.» Article 92, Chapter V: «The exclusive right in respect of photographs shall continue for twenty years from the making of the photograph.»--Trixt (talk) 19:11, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Canada?

It'd be really useful if I could get the situation for Canada listed here, because I'm in the process of uploading some PD-Art works that I believe were scanned in Canada. Dcoetzee (talk) 23:50, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
