The Sage banner was created by Alex Clemesha, http://alex.knoboo.com/, and is open source because this topic has come up already on sage-devel (long ago). As far as I know all Sage art is open source. AFAIK, the only graphical thing related to Sage which is *not* open source are the page designs which Harald S created for the Sage website, which is copyright of Harald. (That is his prerogative, I guess.)
FYI, here is another page of Sage graphics: http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/wdj/art/images.html It is all open source or public domain (in the US anyway), except possibly for the photos of the plant Sage, which I got off the web. In the US, photos of graffitti (by which I mean illegally painted public art) are public domain.
