Fair use rationale edit

1. This is an image of a deceased individual of historical importance for whom no free use image exists.

2. The purpose of the image is to illustrate a non-profit encyclopedia article on the subject of the image.

3. Use of this image is irreplaceable.

4. The photographer who took this image, probably in the 1910s, is unknown. There is no one to whom to appeal for formal permissions.

5. This is a low resolution rendition of the original image; commercial value of the original is unharmed.

6. Only a portion, about 90% of the original image, is used here in retouched form.

7. It is extraordinarily unlikely that this image is commercially copyrighted.

Licensing edit

This image is a faithful digitisation of a unique historic image, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who created the image or the agency employing the person. It is believed that the use of this image may qualify as non-free use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. Please remember that the non-free content criteria require that non-free images on Wikipedia must not "[be] used in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media." Use of historic images from press agencies must only be of a transformative nature, when the image itself is the subject of commentary rather than the event it depicts (which is the original market role, and is not allowed per policy).
