"an object that has a meaning" is rather a curious turn of phrase. If you mean a sculpture, an object with a symbolic meaning, it would be protected by copyright as soon as it is fixed in a tangible medium. A patent would be more appropriate for a new type of object with a useful function.

What is physical copyright?
A physical object can either contain a copy of a creative work (e.g., a CD or DVD is a physical object with works recorded on them), or the physical work may, itself, be subject of copyright in its design (such as sculpture, architecture).
Is copyright or patent violated when a picture is taken of the object?
Probably not. A patent protects an invention, which may be embodied in a product/object, but it only prevents others from making, using, selling or importing the patented invention. A copyright protects creative expression, which can be embodied in an object of sculpture, for example. Taking a picture of that object creates a new copyrightable object: the photograph. If the object is a work of visual arts, then the photograph could be considered a "derivative" work, based upon the original work. However, simply taking a picture (creating, in theory, a copy) would probably not rise to the level of "infringement" because the owner of the copyright on the original has not been "harmed" yet.
