Fair Use Rationale for George Brecht

This low resolution image of Brecht is used in the info box in an article about the artist and his work.
He is an historic artist and this image adds value and information to the article.
It is considered that this will not cause commercial harm to the copyright holder. It is believed that this is fair use and does not infringe copyright.
According to section 107 of the United States Copyright Act of 1976 :

The fair use of a copyrighted work...for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright.[1] The image is used for non-profit purposes. This factor is noted as relevant by the Act.

There is no alternative, public domain or free-copyrighted replacement available.
Inclusion is for information, education and analysis only.
Its inclusion in the article(s) adds significantly to the article(s) because it shows the subject, or the work of the subject, of the article(s).
The image is a low resolution copy of the original work of such low quality that it would be unlikely to impact sales of the work.

This image represents a two-dimensional work of art, such as a drawing, painting, print, or similar creation. The copyright for this image is likely owned by either the artist who created it, the individual who commissioned the work, or their legal heirs. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of artworks:

for purposes of critical commentary on:
- the specific work in question,
- the artistic genre or technique employed in the artwork, or
- the artistic school or tradition to which the artist is associated,
as applied within the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers located in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law.

Any other use of this image, whether on Wikipedia or elsewhere, could potentially constitute a copyright infringement. For further information, please refer to Wikipedia's guidelines on non-free content.
Fair use

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.

The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion.

It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:

the person(s), product, event, or subject in question;
where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it;
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation;

qualifies as fair use under Copyright law of the United States. Any other usage of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.

Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.

Fair use

The image, a self portrait, was a deliberately controlled promotional photo, and has been widely distributed since for promotional purposes.
