Hi Scott, It was raised with the NPG, as promised, at the time. They assured me they would investigate immediately on the pages indicated as well as make a random sampling of other pages on their site to see if it had happened elsewhere.
I'll re-raise this with them today and get back to you when I know any news. Sincerely, -Liam

Back in March this year, I pointed out in Wikien-1 that the UKs National Portrait Gallery, was reusing Wikipedia content (and in particular my work) without any attribution (and indeed was claiming copyright).

This got some attention at the time, and coverage in the en.wp Signpost.

The matter ended when it was indicated that WMF people in the GLAM project would raise it with the NPG as a matter of urgency.
However, I note that the NPG continues to use copyrighted material without attribution and with a false copyright claim.
