Resemblance to Gursky photo

 * Context for discussion: File:99 cent II, diptychon - Photo courtesy of Sotheby's.jpg Valfontis (talk) 14:35, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

This copies (plagiarises?) a quite-famous large-format photo by I forget which art-photographer. Possible copy-vio - you would certainly risk legal trouble if you tried to sell large prints of it Johnbod 17:09, 11 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it's quite clearly a crappy knockoff of the most expensive photograph in the world: Andreas Gursky's 99 Cent. 209.94.128.90 00:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Uh I don't see how its a rip off.. its a picture o-O I took a picture like this before because I work in a supermarket where the breakroom looks down on the store. It's clearly not a knockoff. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.82.200.74 (talk) 03:02, 29 March 2007‎ (UTC)

At first sight, I thought how an editor could manage to get a permission to use it for wiki from Andre Gursky. I'm not the only one thinking of it as seeing the above comment. It is very odd to see the strong resemblance to the famous picture of the super famous photographer.--Appletrees (talk) 00:59, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


 * This is not a "knock off" or an amateur photograph inspired by Gursky. This IS a famous Gursky photo. http://minimalexposition.blogspot.com/2010/05/meditation-andreas-gursky.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.117.102.205 (talk) 13:33, 11 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I seems the blog you reference simply got it wrong. It might be somewhat derivative, but it's definitely not Gursky's work. 86.52.165.159 (talk) 09:49, 11 January 2011 (UTC)


 * I am one of two bloggers who 'got it wrong' http://minimalexposition.blogspot.com. We have both removed the photo from our posts; sorry for any confusion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.57.117.91 (talk) 11:11, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
