Best Answer

Normally, unless they are sufficiently old to have passed into the public domain. An 18th century woodcut reproduced in a book, for example, would not suddenly become protected. But contemporary drawings, illustrations, or photographs are protected for the life of the creator plus 50 years at a minimum; the US and several other countries have extended this to life plus 70 years.
