Open Content Program
Many high-resolution digital images to which Getty holds the rights, or which depict works in the public domain, are available for free download under CC0 through Getty’s Open Content Program. No permission from Getty is required. You may use these images for any purpose under the following terms:
- You may not use the images in any way that suggests or implies that Getty endorses, approves of, or participated in your project, or in any way that might create confusion about the source of your project.
- To identify the source of the image in a way that minimizes risk of confusion, we ask, but do not require, that you credit Getty as follows: Digital image courtesy of Getty’s Open Content Program.
- Some images may include people or objects for which a third party may claim rights such as trademark, copyright, privacy, or publicity rights. Getty does not warrant that all Open Content images are free from rights claimed by third parties. As the user, it is your responsibility to obtain any third-party permissions that may be required for your use. Getty assumes no liability for your use of these images.

J. Paul Getty Museum Collection Online and Copyright
Records and images found in the Museum Collection are published from the Museum's collection database. Updates and additions stemming from research and imaging activities are ongoing and published online regularly. All text in the collection records is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0. International (CC-BY) License, unless otherwise noted. Images and other media are not covered by the CC-BY license. Digital images of Getty-owned artworks in the public domain are available for free download under CC0 through Getty's Open Content Program, as described above.
The Museum does not hold the copyright to many of the works in its collection, and respects the intellectual property rights held by artists, their estates, and other rights holders. Every effort has been made to accurately determine the rights status of works and their images. The Museum utilizes standardized rights statements developed by RightsStatements.org to communicate the copyright status of its collection images. In addition, for copyrighted works with a known rights holder, a copyright notice is displayed under any available images and as part of the record for the artwork. Sometimes the rights holder for a work cannot be identified or located despite a good-faith diligent search conducted by the Museum. Such "orphan works" are labeled as "Status undetermined" as part of the record for the artwork. For some artworks, copyright research is still incomplete. These works are labeled as "Status unknown, research required." Please send an email to Museum Rights and Reproductions if you have information on the rights status of a work that is contrary or in addition to the information in our records.
Images may be unavailable for a work of art due to contractual reasons, copyright and privacy/publicity restrictions, or because a work has not yet been photographed or is too fragile to be photographed. For records with images, a combination of copyright status and available image quality determines the final image display size on the collection website. The Museum publishes thumbnail-size images of copyrighted works for which it does not have a license to reproduce under fair use. All available images include embedded metadata, accessible under file properties or file information.
Blog/s
The Getty websites sometimes provide blog/s for the exchange of ideas and information.
By posting comments to a Getty blog you agree to avoid abusive and offensive language and to refrain from posting any content that is commercial in nature, advocates for a political cause or legislation, or infringes upon any third party's rights, including privacy, copyright, trademark, or patent. We reserve the right to delete comments and links we find to be inappropriate or offensive or not related to the topic, including, without limitation, links to commercial and political websites. We will review comments prior to posting, but we will not correct spelling, grammar, or factual errors although we may comment on them. We hope you share your thoughts with us. Please note: We may discontinue our blogs at any time. We do not have the ability to remove comments upon your request. By submitting comments, you acknowledge that they will be posted on the World Wide Web. You agree we have the right to quote from your comments in all media now known and hereinafter devised.
By posting or distributing information or material through the blog/s, you expressly abandon any proprietary rights you may have in your comments, and such information or material may be freely copied and distributed by others without your permission. You are responsible for obtaining permission from any third party owner of proprietary material, such as a copyrighted story or a news article written by another person, before you post or distribute such material. Getty requires you to obtain all necessary permissions before posting or distributing any content on the blog/s.
Getty does not warrant that use of the materials displayed in the blog/s will not infringe the rights of third parties not owned by or licensed to Getty. For example, some works may be under copyright by the artist or the artist's heirs holding rights to these works. Such works may not be used in any form; they may not be copied or downloaded without prior permission from the holder of the underlying copyright.
Phone Audio Tours
As part of the phone audio tours, Getty may invite people to leave comments. Please know that your comments will be reviewed by Getty staff and may be reproduced by Getty in all media now known or hereinafter devised. If you do not want your comment used, please state that clearly after the prompt.
Unrestricted Forum/s
The Getty websites sometimes provide unrestricted forum/s for the exchange of ideas and information by participants. Getty does not edit or control the information or materials posted to or distributed through these Forums ("Talk Content"). Getty is not in any way responsible or liable for Talk Content, and claims no proprietary rights of any kind arising from the posting or distribution of material through these Forums. All other terms of use applying to Blog/s apply equally to the Forum/s.

Some Getty websites contain links to third party websites. The linked sites are not under the control of Getty, and Getty is not responsible for the contents of any linked site. Getty provides these links as a convenience only, and a link does not imply endorsement of, sponsorship of, or affiliation with the linked site by Getty.
