| Portion used |
The entire headshot photograph is used to convey the impression intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
The digitized image of the original photograph is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the photographer (Walker Evans) and the subject (Lincoln Kirstein) and the New York Times without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
| Purpose of use |
The significance of the image is to help the reader identify the historical person, to assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the person, and illustrate the life of the person in a way that words alone could not convey. |
| Replaceable? |
Because it is a unique formal photograph/portrait, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the impression intended by the photographer and the subject and the New York Times, would tarnish or misrepresent this person's image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
