Non-free / fair use media rationale for Victor, Colorado
Description

This image is a faithful digitalization of Victor, Colorado, a historically significant photograph.

Source

The image has been derived from: http://photoswest.org/cgi-bin/imager?20007924+CHS.X7924 (Denver Public Library).

Article

Victor, Colorado

Portion used

Because the image is historically significant, the entire image is needed to identify the subject, 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. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable for uses that would compete with any commercial purpose of the photograph.

Purpose of use

Identification and critical commentary in the Victor, Colorado article, a subject of public interest. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed next to the associated material discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for.

Replaceable?

Because the image depicts a non-reproducible historic event, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.

Other information Use of the historic image in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. The image meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopaedic.

[edit] Licensing:

This photograph was taken c.1905, and hence the US copyright has probably expired. However, publication history is unknown.
