Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits

Portion used

Because the image is an album cover, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.

Low resolution?

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Purpose of use

For fair use on Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits:

  • The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article about the album, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for.
  • It is used for identification and critical commentary of the work for which it was created.
  • It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone.
  • Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to cinema concerns and in turn marketing films to the public.
Replaceable?

As an album cover, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the images from the movie poster would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.

Other information

Use of the album cover in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.

Article

Uline Arena

Purpose of use
  • Only the front cover of the album is being used. This is only a portion of the work of art.
  • It is a lower resolution version of the cover is used. Any copies made using this file would be of inferior quality and unsuitable for pirate versions.
  • The cover picture was taken at the Uline Arena in 1965. The article explains the circumstances of the creation of the cover and how it came to be used as a cover. The section on the page is about the cover itself as a piece of art.
  • The cover gives a visual representation to the reader that can not be adequately explained in words alone.
Replaceable?

There is only one version of the photo and it is the commercial cover of the album. It can not be replaced by any free media as it is the creation of the non-free media that is explained in this article.
