It looks very much like some or all of the "Karl Auböck" (Carl Auböck) images come from Maria Auböck of Werkstätte Carl Auböck via User WorteOhneLieder (German: Song without words). I do not think this is a case of malicious "Own work" misattribution. I believe that it is more likely a case of an inexperienced user (kindly) making a contribution to Commons of images to which they very likely own the rights. (See Maria Auböck in the section about her father Karl Auböck III). It may be worth emailing the company directly. Shame to lose these images. (I'll also added a note and an image request on the Talk page of the Carl Auböck Wikipedia article.) -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 07:36, 12 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
