This image is most likely NOT in the Public Domain, despite claims to the contrary below. The statue itself was created in 1961, but there is no evidence that the photograph was published without a copyright notice before 1977, and the documented publication of the photograph begins well after that. The creator of the photo has not released the work to the public domain, but has distributed it with a licence. The statue itself is in the public domain and anyone can take a picture of it and do what they want with that picture, but this picture is the property of the person who took it. Photographs of 2 dimensional public domain works, like paintings, are automatically in the public domain. Photographs of 3-dimensional works are the property of the photographer, even if the subject of the photograph is public domain.
