Using an NFT for vintage photo provenance

Might an NFT smart contract providing documentary provenance for a historically interesting original photograph -say a daguerreotype- be written in such a way that the owner/buyer of the NFT is also entitled to the original (and unique) copy of that photo (which would then, in effect, make the NFT the ownership title for that particular image?) Antique photos contain unique information that is often relegated to a file or dustbin but this might be a way of giving life (and a tracking history) to such historical images. It might also provide royalties to those who bought and sold that image before its significance was appreciated.
