So, how do you get the license of a image? Seems there

way.
For example,
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Turner,_J._M._W._-_The_Fighting_T%C3…
is in the public domain.
MediaWiki doesn't keep track of a file's license. License information
on Commons is displayed using templates, but those only have meaning
to the humans that see them not to the software.
So I guess the answer to your question is: you don't.
