Portion used

The entirety of the image, as most frequently reproduced, is used for proper contextualization.

Low resolution?

Yes

Purpose of use

For use in article section "1968–73: Comeback". The image is used for explication of sourced critical commentary on the event depicted, the significant visual content of the image, and the image itself. The image is famous, "one of the most famous" of the article's subject, Presley (Source: Keogh, Pamela Clarke (2004). Elvis Presley: The Man, The Life, The Legend, p. 263. Simon and Schuster. ISBN 0743456033). It was used for Presley's first appearance on the cover of Rolling Stone. In addition, in the general context of the article, it also illustrates one of the most significant stages of the substantial transformation of the singer's image over the course of his career; those transformations are regarded as crucial to understanding his impact and position in cultural memory (Source: Marcus, Greil (1982). Mystery Train: Images of America in Rock 'n' Roll Music (rev. ed.), pp. 141–42. E.P. Dutton. ISBN 052547708X). The use of the image in this location and context makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone.

Replaceable?

This is the very photograph that is discussed in the article and given the circumstances of its execution, any comparable image would be similarly under copyright, so no free image plausibly exists or could exist that would be a valid replacement.

Other information

The image is of low resolution and unsuitable for high-quality copies, would not decrease commercial demand for the original, is not used or sold for profit, and is used in the context of an educational discussion regarding the image and the event it depicts.
