FechinSelfPortrait.JPG‎ (234 × 288 pixels, file size: 11 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

This image is of a drawing, painting, print, or other two-dimensional work of art, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the artist who produced the image, the person who commissioned the work, or the heirs thereof. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of works of art for critical commentary on the work in question, the artistic genre or technique of the work of art or the school to which the artist belongs 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. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might 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 described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Fair use for Nicolai Fechin

This image, FechinSelfPortrait.JPG, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (abakharev) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a low resolution copy of a painting;
2. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell painting and in fact reinforces its value due to the publicity;
3. the image is significant because it provides an important example of the artist's style.
