Getty Museum posts nearly 88,000 scans of artwork with Creative Commons Zero license [1]

['Rob Beschizza']

Date: 2024-03-15

As part of its Open Content program, the Getty made nearly 88,000 images available under the Creative Common Zero license, which allows everyone to "copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking permission" and is functionally (if not quite legally) equivalent to dedicating work to the public domain. Open Culture:

Not to be confused with Getty Images, which has a reputation for the exact opposite practice of trying to corrall and monetize public domain content it has scanned.
