The presented paper aims to assess and further explore the potential effects the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union (“CJEU”) in the area of originality of photographic works might have on various national different understandings of originality itself and also on the provision of copyright protection to the products of photographic labour in each Member State of the EU (“Member State”). It is evident the CJEU with its jurisprudence took on to unify and harmonise different national approaches of the Member States. However, it is still relatively unknown how will the national copyright frameworks of the Member States adjust to the newly proposed rules of protection.
