What is most striking to my mind in this issue
of
use of images, is how the status quo differs from
that with regard to _texts_.
Yes. One has to keep in mind, of course, that the NPG is qualitatively
different to most museums, and behaves much more like Gollum with the

Excuse me for not posting under my real name, but I’m a publisher of
academic books in the UK, and I don’t want to embarrass my employers,
since I’m not speaking on behalf of the firm.

Thanks for posting that, David. It was a fascinating read!
