Other information	Published in 1971, this illustrates an educational article; its inclusion in the article adds significantly to understanding the text because it is a historical sample of the artwork and story situation, and it relates to matters covered in the critical commentary. Therefore the image substantially improves the overall educational value of the article. The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic, which directly concerns a visual art. It is of much lower resolution than the original. Any potential copies made from it would be of very inferior quality unsuitable for any commercial purpose. The image is not used here for profit, and its use on Wikipedia does not compete with the copyright holder and such use does not decrease the value of the copyright to its holder. It is not in any way replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image pertinent to the article subject, because the whole body of work under discussion is copyrighted.
