| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a very early period in Lamantia’s body of painting works in the 1970s: his complex, ambitious paintings of surreal, often disturbing figures engaged in discomfiting, psychosexual dramas that were noted for their emotional impact, bravura technique, and uncompromising approach. Because the article is about an artist and his work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this body of painting representing a key development in his art. Lamantia’s work of this type and this painting in particular is discussed in the article and by critics cited in the article. |
