Portion used |
The entire cover: because the image is cover art, 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 cover. 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 |
Other—Used in the main body of the article, showing an insert that was originally included with the album, illustrating the article and the subject in question. The section of the article in which the photo is featured directly discusses the subject matter of the image shown, namely Arthur Anning, England, and Queen Victoria. Shown is the famous "Queen Victoria" insert, showing how not only the songs, but the album and record itself directly dealt with British culture and the Victoria era. More importantly, Victoria holds the character Arthur Anning in the insert, the main character in the plotline of the album. The image caption also discusses the insert itself, and the artist who created it. 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? |
As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
Other information |
