The policy at https://data.si.re.kr/node/65064#photo-rights was reviewed for commercial-use and modification permissions and attribution requirements. The photo is dated April 2010, but no exact day is given, so captured:null is retained. The original photo was checked for the “Leeum Samsung Museum of Art” sign, wood panels, glass facade and entrance path. The public 600 × 401 JPEG was downloaded without local conversion, enlargement or cropping. A high-resolution copy was not requested by email. A different official photo from 2020 was not selected because a foreground sculpture dominates it; this entrance-path image was chosen instead. The image may be cropped to fit its display area.
