WORKS NOT UNDER COPYRIGHT: FREE DOWNLOAD
In accordance with the 2021 amendment to the Austrian Copyright Act, photographs that reproduce works of fine art whose terms of copyright protection have expired are not subject to photographic copyright protection.
The publication of reproduction files (up to 300 dpi, ca. A7 format) showing works not under copyright from the ALBERTINA’s collections is hence made possible by the ALBERTINA free of charge. Permission from the ALBERTINA is not necessary. Please use the free download function included in the Collections Online section of our website.

Reproduction files of works under copyright and three-dimensional works are subject to copyright protection. For every use, publication, and/or transfer to third parties, permission from the ALBERTINA is required. In addition to a fee to cover the cost of file preparation, a royalty may likewise be charged. The amount of the royalty depends on the purpose of use, the type of publication, edition size / circulation, number of languages, area of distribution, and other factors. Payment of such royalties shall not affect the intellectual property rights of artists and/or their legal successors.
