I want to ask the meaning of “This work” in third paragraph in README.md #9

I‘m translating the README.md file into Chinese,I'm puzzled by To the extent possible under law, The Metropolitan Museum of Art has waived all copyright and related or neighboring rights to this dataset using Creative Commons Zero. This work is published from: The United States Of America. You can also find the text of the CC Zero deed in the file LICENSE in this repository. "This work" means the dataset work or the CCZero document?

In front of the sentence, it's a dot . In Chinese case , it means CCZero document, otherwise it should be a momma.

My interpretation (I'm just watching this repo, not an owner of it) is that it refers to the dataset (e.g. the CSV file in this repository).

The Creative Commons may have a Chinese translation off the CC Zero license that you can use as a reference. https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/
