Photographers active in the UK may be interested in this successful deletion proposal:

made on the basis that "the sculpture was not permanent, but temporary. It was commissioned for Daylesford in Gloucestershire, but at first stood in 2009 temporarily in London. There is no freedom of panorama in England for temporary sculptures and therefore the license is invalid."
I intend to call for undeletion.
Hi Andy,
That rationale makes sense, unless the image was of something more permanent, or of something that's still there with no expectations of being removed? Is there an enwp article here?
Thanks, Mike

The question is not whether the sculpture itself is permanent but whether the display is permanent. It sounds as if this was not.
