Article | |
Portion used |
The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, 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 cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
Purpose of use |
Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. 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 in the infobox at the top of the article 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. Commentary in the article about the cover art itself: "The stark black-and-white cover photo was taken on the main lawn at Friar Park by Barry Feinstein. Its composition − Harrison seated in the centre of, and towering over, four comical-looking garden gnomes − is often thought to represent his removal from The Beatles' collective identity, if not a degree of superiority over it.[1] Ever competitive, and noticeably negative about his former bandmates' solo work around this time (especially McCartney's), John Lennon is said to have taken particular offence at the apparent message in Harrison's album cover[2] (notwithstanding his own declaration regarding The Beatles in his concurrent song "God"). In fact, the inclusion of the gnomes was the photographer's idea, but the symbolism was quite deliberate, according to Feinsten: "What else could it be? ... it was over with The Beatles, right? And that title − All Things Must Pass. Very symbolic.. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public. |
Replaceable? |
As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
Other information |
Wikipedia use satisfies criteria for fair use for a number of reasons: the image will complement an educational article about the album from which the cover illustration has been taken; the image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic; the use of the cover will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original (in particular, copies of the image could not be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on another CD); and it is a low resolution image. |

Low resolution? |

Purpose of use |
For use in article section "Release and reception". The image is used for explication of critical commentary on the cover image and its significance, as well as for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. In particular, text in this section discusses commentators' interpretation of the All Things Must Pass cover as being irrevocably linked with the song "Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp"; as stated in the article, author Simon Leng describes the song as a "musical companion piece" to the album cover image, in that it "conjures an allegorical dream world, populated by smirking gnomes ... a disembodied Victorian lawyer, and, in George Harrison, a refugee from the world's attention". The use of the image in this location and context makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. |

Purpose of use |
For use in article section "Release and album artwork". The image is used for explication of critical interpretation of the cover photo and its significance in relation to the title track of the album. Text in this section groups interpretation of the song "All Things Must Pass", on release in November 1970, with the symbolism apparent in the cover image, as representing Harrison's removal from the Beatles' collective identity, seven months after their break-up. In a 2001 interview with Mojo magazine, photographer Barry Feinstein confirmed that the symbolism was deliberate, and that the title "All Things Must Pass" was influential in him incorporating the four gnomes in the photo's composition, and in him choosing to use the shot for the album cover.[3] The use of the image in this location and context makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone.. |
