You can also use my talk page at the German wikipedia (in German, English or French), but since I enabled notification by e-mail, it might be only marginally faster.


 

1982 German stamps

[edit]

They appear to depict a work of Max Pechstein, should I undelete if I can match it to a pre-1931 painting or just leave it for undeletion around 2078 (or before?) Abzeronow (talk) 02:04, 2 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello Abzeronow,
a happy new year to you :-) It's this painting from 1925 I think? That stamp should be safe to undelete now, the painting appears to be reproduced as a photograph (so no new copyright for the graphics), and I'd assume the paintings also counts as "published" in 1925 or so, so its US copyright should have expired. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 11:48, 2 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
Danke. I've now undeleted those stamps. Abzeronow (talk) 23:45, 2 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
Related question, is the painting in File:Stamp Germany 1996 Briefmarke Dt. Malerei Weiblicher Akt.jpg PD in the US? Abzeronow (talk) 04:56, 3 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
It is a 1910 painting, so it should be. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 08:58, 3 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Can you read the credit in the lower right, last name looks like Kugelspfeifer to me, but German orthography is still a challenge for me. Abzeronow (talk) 04:53, 11 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Ernst Hugelshofer. Regards --Rosenzweig τ 07:03, 11 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, corrected information on that file. Abzeronow (talk) 07:11, 11 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I suggest you close this DR, and reopen small batches of files (by year or museum?) after checking the place of creation and publication. The DR is too long, and there are many uncertain cases. In addition, Bodyoaken has uploaded many more files, so they all have to be checked again. I am going to sort out the files by year, if it can help, and you can wait for some days. Regards, Yann (talk) 10:25, 15 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello Yann,
I disagree. Doing that would mean tedious manual assembly of smaller DRs, and I won't do that because you feel the DR is too long. The works which are possibly PD-US based on the time of creation are already grouped together, and if you think others are possibly PD-US too because of some information that you found, write it in the DR, and those can be grouped together as well. More recent uploads by Bodyoaken are already covered by a separate DR. Regard --Rosenzweig τ 10:33, 15 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
