Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of their biographical article
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
David ruled Trebizond only briefly and no contemporary depictions, not even coins or seals, survive of him. Next to none have been made of him since his death either, and this 2013 icon remains the closest thing to an "official" portrait that there is.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This file will only be used in the article on David of Trebizond; its resolution has been reduced and it has been cropped to be limited to only him.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
The Ecumenical Patriarchate is a religious organization, and the image has already been relatively widely used online. It has been cropped to be limited to just David and its resolution has been reduced.
Other information The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 1463
