[edit] Summary

Imaginary portrait of Avicenna the great Iranian (Persian) scientist as seen depicted on a stamp issued by the United Arab Emirates

[edit] Fair use rationale

• Although the copyright for this stamp is most likely owned by the U.A.E., its use here does not impair their ability to use it as a postage stamp. It is used on Avicenna to show a stamp bearing his likeness as an illustration of his enduring legacy. This could not adequately be illustrated by words alone.
• Use of the image affects neither its potential market nor its value as it is being used for non-commercial purposes both at the original website and at Wikipedia.
• The image is non-replaceable.

This image is of a postage stamp. The copyright for it may be owned by the issuing authority, and there may be other restrictions on its reproduction. It is believed that the use of postage stamps to illustrate the stamp in question (as opposed to things appearing in the stamp's design) on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
