"Again, Artemisia shows serious daring, and the guts to see her mission carried through to the end. It is both a stunning exercise in chiarascuro and the full-on application of the Italian Baroque taste for violence."

This was from my first book that Book Baby published. I was writing about this artist's works after a trip to see it in person.

What I take from your post is that the church where I saw the work would have to give permission to show it, even if I took the photo myself. Or find the name of the photographer and get his/her permission.
