Photo credits

Every rotating portrait keeps its credit object beside its filename in evening-home/photos.js. The current local originals remain unchanged while provenance and reuse terms are audited.

Current portrait rotation

Verified archival candidates

These sources were checked for a named photographer and an explicit reuse statement. They are research candidates only; no current portrait was replaced in this preview.

• Portrait of Billie Holiday, Downbeat, ca. Feb. 1947 — William P. Gottlieb, photographer. The Library of Congress says the Gottlieb photographs entered the public domain on February 16, 2010; privacy and publicity rights may still apply. Credit line: William P. Gottlieb / Library of Congress.
• Portrait of Billie Holiday, March 23, 1949 — Carl Van Vechten, photographer. The Library of Congress identifies the collection as having no known copyright restrictions; the Van Vechten estate requests preservation of integrity and photographer credit.
• John Coltrane 1963 — Hugo van Gelderen, photographer. Wikimedia Commons records the file as CC0; verify the source record again before adopting it and retain the photographer credit.

Adding a future photo

Add the file under evening-home/assets/, then add one object to window.stationPhotos with name, src, position, and a credit object containing status, sourceUrl, photographer, reuseTerms, and notes. Do not mark an image verified until the source page names the work and gives a reuse basis. Keep unresolved originals marked unresolved.
