Rights and Restrictions Information

Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C., 20540-4730

There are no restrictions on the use of Stanley Kubrick's photographs for LOOK Magazine. Privacy and Publicity rights may apply.

Access: Permitted; subject to P&P policy on serving originals.

Reproduction (photocopying, hand-held camera copying, photoduplication and other forms of copying allowed by "fair use"): Hand-held camera copying is not permitted; all other forms of copying are permitted subject to P&P policy on copying.

Publication and other forms of distribution: Permitted. The rights to photographs in the collection that were produced as "work for hire" by LOOK staff photographers were held by Cowles Communications, Inc., until it gave both the rights and the physical collection to the Library in 1975. As Cowles was not able to establish which images were created as "works for hire," it expressed its desire that photographs not be used for "advertising or trade purposes." The family of Stanley Kubrick has notified the Library that he was a staff photographer for LOOK; therefore, his work for LOOK was "work for hire" and use is unrestricted. Privacy and publicity rights may also apply.

Credit Line: Stanley Kubrick, photographer, LOOK Magazine Collection, Library of Congress, Prints & Photographs Division, [Reproduction number e.g., LC-L9-60-8812, frame 8]
