Well, I must say, notwithstanding the smilie, that asking for astronomical accuracy in an artistic style that
intends to break away from accurate representation, weakens the requests for good astronomy where accuracy may be expected.
Anyway, off the topic, but related to the graphic in question:
San Jose Mercury News:
Logo art so surreal artist's family upset
Quote:
"It's a distortion of the original works and in that respect it violates the moral rights of the artist,'' said Theodore Feder, president of Artists Rights Society. "There are underlying copyrights to the works of Miró, and they are putting it up without having the rights.''
In a written statement to the Mercury News, Google said that it would honor the request but that it did not believe its logo was a copyright violation.
