Would this be Copyright Infringement? - General Tiki

Was it a no-no? As you can see, the BOT™ is clearly shown on the table. What if a picture was posted of someone's living room with a coffee table book lying open on the table? Would that be copyright infringement? Why do I ask, you say? I am thinking of doing a replica piece and would like to post a digital pic of a picture from an old polynesian artifacts book to show what it is I will be carving. Any copyright experts out there? A-A (Note that I will be glad to delete this pic if anyone objects. Don't sue me, BigBro!!)
