NEW KINK IN COPYRIGHT.
How an English Picture Sold to One
Man and the Copyright to
Another.

People who concern themselves with
artistic copyright would 10 well to con-
slider case that came under my notice
the other day, says a writer in the
London Graphic. A picturq was sold to
Mr.. A. and the copyright TO Mr..
B. At the close of the exhibition Of
the Royal Academy the picture was
sent to Mr.. A., who paid for the pic
ture, and at the same time Mr.. B. paid
for the copyright. After time Mr..
B. applied for the loan of the picture
in order to have it engraved; but Mr..
A. absolutely declined to lend the
picture on any terms whatever. He ac-
knowledged that he did not possess the
copyright, and said that he did not
want it, but he was not such fool as
to give a good round sum for work Of
art in order that he might lend it to
other people. He said he bought it to
look at, and he was not going to have
it taken away from his gallery for a
year in order that other people might
make money out ofit, When you come
to think Of it, he had a good deal Of
reason ON his side, and yet it was very
hard on the owner Of the copyright and
the artist, who would have obtained
considerable publicity from the engrav-
ing. Probably the fault was with the
artist, when selling the picture, in not
reserving the right Of reasonable ac-
cess to the picture for the purpose OF
engraving; then the purchaser would
know exactly how he stood.
