| Portion used |
The entire digitized photographic image is used to avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting it. |
| Low resolution? |
The digitized image is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the impression of what this man looked like, but without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
| Purpose of use |
This historian and university professor is a subject of public interest. The significance of the drawing is to help the reader identify what he looked like, to assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing biographical and commentary about him, and to describe him in a way that words alone could not convey. |
| Replaceable? |
There is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey a meaningful impression or it might tarnish or misrepresent his image or it might fail its purpose of identification. |
