Template:Artwork/doc

 | This template uses TemplateStyles: |
{{Artwork}} is an alternative to {{Information}} template used for the description of images of artworks, especially those residing in museums or galleries. It is also recommended for other non-artistic objects held by GLAM institutions, like archeological artifacts, etc., although some objects might be better served by {{Photograph}}, {{Book}} or {{Map}} templates.
Faithful reproductions (without specific creative contribution from the photograph) of 2D art only require a license for the artwork, like {{PD-art}}. Copyrightable photos of 2D art and photos of 3D art (sculptures, structures, coins, gems, etc.) require a licence for the depicted artwork and a licence for the photograph itself. In such cases, {{Art Photo}} is recommended. See here for more information about copyright of the copied artwork.
The template automatically sets the following categories: Category:Artwork template maintenance
