A Mr John Malyon e-mails us on Monday, September 7, 1998:
It has come to my attention that you have taken a reproduction of a painting which we published on our site, and used it for your own purposes.
The painting is a portrait of Adolph Eichmann, at http://old.fpp.co.uk/Auschwitz/docs/Eichmannindex.html.
This picture is copyright, and we do not grant you permission to use it on your site. Please remove it or we will be forced to take further action. . .
Thank you.

We have replied:
Dear Mr Malyon
You state that the painting is copyright.
Please confirm whose copyright?
May I also politely inquire who brought the site to your attention?
It is such a magnificent painting of this evil man, it is a pity to hide it away on somebody else's instructions.
Sincerely,
