Fair use rationale Frank Shifreen[edit]
| Description |
This image is a faithful digitalization of "Transfiguration Pontiac", a historically significant painting. |
|---|---|
| Source |
The image was provided by Frank Shifreen, and derived from the source material |
| Article | |
| Portion used |
Because the image is a historically significant example of Shifreen's paintings, the entire image is needed to identify the subject, 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 for uses that would compete with any commercial purpose of the photograph. |
| Purpose of use |
Identification and critical commentary in the Frank Shifreen article, a subject of public interest. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed next to a discussion of the style Shifreen uses to paint, and is therefore associated material discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the style and know they have found what they are looking for. |
| Replaceable? |
Because the image is non-reproducible, there is no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
| Other information |
Use of the historic image in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. The image meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopaedic. |
