This article celebrating Public Domain Day is mostly about works that entered the public domain in the US on Jan. 1, but it also covers some works that were already in the public domain. For Magritte's famous painting of a pipe, The Treachery of Images, they're at "probably public domain, but we're still looking into it," because what legal definition of "published" (and hence publication date) for paintings was "murky" and "not well-defined."
