Who Owns This Image?

Art, Access, and the Public Domain after Bridgeman v. Corel -- a public panel discussion tomorrow, Tuesday, April 29, 6:30-8 at the NYC Bar Association, 42 W. 44th St. I'll be at the roundtable before and listening eagerly to the panel discussion.

More here. Ironically/tragically, most of the announcements of this panel on the web don't include "this image," which in my print invitation is attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, photograph copyright John Smith, 2007. Is the John Smith a joke? (Like, one is tempted to say, the copyright claim?)
