it is an architectural work completed prior to 15 December 1972;
it is a sculpture, monument, or other artistic work created before 15 December 1972 and was not registered, or an artistic work created before 1942 and which its copyright was not renewed; and/or
it is an architecture completed on or after 15 December 1972 or an another type of artistic work not meeting the second criterion, whose author or last-surviving author (e.g. the architect or sculptor) has been deceased for 50 years or more (therefore its copyright protection expired).
