Dr. Amy, Psy.D.I was so excited about Sherlock Holmes I didn’t realize MC Escher’s works also entered the public domain today!!
Edit - apparently Google showed me an article that isn’t specific to the US so this isn’t true here 😭 Sorry for the wrong info!
Shawn King@dramypsyd Are you sure?
“In general, copyright lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years. Escher died in March, 1972, so his copyrights will expire in March, 2042.”
@KingShawn ugh yes apparently Google showed me an article from a country with different laws. For all the weirdly personal info they have on me you’d think they’d know which jurisdiction I’m in
@dramypsyd I asked because I’m a HUGE Escher fan.
@KingShawn we will have to keep waiting sadly!
@dramypsyd I’ve only seen his works in real life once. Loved it but was surprised at how small so many of his most famous pieces actually are!
