In Canada, art students are required to buy a $180 art history book with no pictures in it. Why not? Copyright clearance problems.

Seems like if you can't get to the original images to make a copy of them, then the owners of the copy of the image that you duplicated may try to come after you. For instance: If I photograph a piece of art (especially in a museum which prohibits photography), and then square up that photograph and correct the exposure a bit, who owns which portion of that process?
I don't know about Canada, but I don't think the issues are at all clear here in the U.S.

I still don't know what copyright issues there could be for paintings from before 1800 AD.

Oh, yeah, this one has two great issues tied together: For profit schools nickel and diming (well, okay, Grant and Franklin-ing William Lyon Mackenzie King/Amundsen and Robert Borden/insulin-ing) students, and misapplied IP. Go Canada!
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
