A quick definition of right of attribution:

The right of attribution is a person's right to be recognized as the creator of a work, to have their name associated with it, and to prevent others from using their name in connection with a work they did not create. This is an important aspect of moral rights, which are recognized in some countries. In the United States, creators of certain works of visual art have statutory attribution rights, and foreign copyright owners may also have enforceable attribution rights. This right is also known as paternity or maternity. It is different from the integrity right, which protects the work from being altered or distorted in a way that harms the creator's reputation.

A more thorough explanation:

The right of attribution is a person's right to be credited as the author of a work. This means that their name should appear in connection with the work, and they have the right to forbid the use of their name in connection with a work that they did not create. This right is recognized primarily in civil-law countries and is one aspect of moral rights.

For example, if a photographer takes a picture, they have the right to be credited as the photographer whenever the picture is used. If someone else uses the picture and claims to be the photographer, the actual photographer can forbid the use of their name in connection with the picture.

Under the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990, creators of works of visual art have certain statutory attribution rights. This means that if someone creates a work of visual art, they have the right to be credited as the creator of that work whenever it is used.

Overall, the right of attribution is important because it allows creators to receive recognition for their work and prevents others from taking credit for something they did not create.
