File:Prins Bernhard.jpg

Not the uploaders own work, see here. The file is not pd in The Netherlands yet either. Natuur12 (talk) 11:27, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

That site shows this image on an old postcard, which at the back has a copyright statement. It is not clear if copyright status has changed since then. It could well be that images from this photographer were donated to the KB: the copyright: label shown on that site indicates that further information can be obtained from the Koninklijke Bibliotheek. User:Happytravels has requested further information from the KB about the copyright status of the image, so I think we should wait for their response before taking further action.

We need evidence that the photographer is not the copyrightholder. Natuur12 (talk) 13:53, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

I agree. That's why there is a request sent to the KB, to provide evidence. Rgds, Trewal (talk) 14:02, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

I got an answer from the Dutch Royal Library (Koninklijke Bibliotheek, or in short KB). The file is in the Netherlands still under copyright restrictions. For publishing the picture, permission is needed from the copyright holder, which is not the KB. The picture is not the uploaders own work. Happytravels (talk) 04:57, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

 Deleted, Jan Weijers uploaded the photo into nl.wiki and claimed to be copyright holder. His claim was based on the fact that he owned the photo, although he was not the original photographer. Actually owning a photo does not make a copyright holder and Jan Weijers did not claim, that the photo is in public domain. In such circumstances it is best to delete the photo.
