It does not fall into one of the blanket acceptable non-free content categories listed at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images or Wikipedia:Non-free content#Audio clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Christopher McCandless" :

To illustrate the subject in question
Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information

[edit] Fair use rationale for Christopher McCandless

I assert fair use in the Christopher McCandless article; this is one of the few available and topical pictures of a person of public interest. Use of image on Wikipedia for informational purposes in the article about the subject in question does not result in any negative effect on sales of any kind. Image is irreplaceable except by another fair-use image as the subject of the article is deceased. Image is of low resolution.
