Your Photographs, Credited and For Sale
Publish heritage photography on a 28-year archive — and sell digital licences directly on the pages your photos illustrate.
What you get
- Credit on every image. Your name appears on each photograph, wherever it is published on the archive.
- Direct sales on place pages. Readers can buy a digital licence of your photo right on the heritage page it illustrates. You keep 100% of the sale price minus payment processing — Cultural Heritage Online currently takes no commission on photo sales.
- Protection on the web. Web previews carry a watermark and hotlink protection; the clean high-resolution file goes only to the buyer.
- You keep ownership. Publication is under a non-exclusive licence: your archive remains yours, and you can sell the same work elsewhere.
How you get paid
Payouts run through a lightweight Stripe Express account in your name (available for collaborators in the EU and UK): identity, IBAN, done. Sales are transferred to your bank; you can follow everything from your own Stripe dashboard.
What we look for
Original photography of heritage places — architecture, interiors, decorative detail, gardens, monuments — with verified locations. Only licence-clean work you took yourself. The Editorial Guidelines apply to captions and attributions.
Not sure what counts as licence-clean — or how to make your own photographs travel the world? Our guide explains which images you can actually use, where to find them, and how a single free upload can reach Wikipedia, search engines and the AI assistants travellers now consult before a trip.
See where your photos live: the Pontine new towns
Photographs here do not disappear into a media library. On the five founded cities of the Pontine plain, credited photographs are the hero image of every place entry and fill the image galleries of the city pages — each caption carrying the photographer’s name, each page linked from articles and itineraries that bring readers to it.
See the gallery on the Sabaudia city entry, or the hero photographs on the entries for the church of the Santissima Annunziata and the Palazzo Comunale of Latina. Every image is credited by name — that is the standard your photographs enter.
Paid assignments
When a client commission requires photography, the assignment is offered by email to eligible photographers at a fixed, stated fee — first qualified to accept takes it. How distribution works is described on the collaboration page.
