This media file has been nominated for deletion since 8 July 2025.
To discuss it, please visit the nomination page.

Do not remove this tag until the deletion nomination is closed.

Reason for the nomination:
The images were uploaded by the US National Archives bot. However, I don't get the {{PD-USGov}}} license for these works by artist Skunder Boghossian. As far as I can see, he didn't work for the US government and the paintings and sculptures aren't "a work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person’s official duties".
