(WP:NFCC#1)
After multiple hours of searching for any verifiable free-to-use image of Joyce, this image from his obituary was the only one that could be confidently by identified as the composer. While popular in the 1910s, Joyce has fallen into obscurity. With little legacy other than as being part of Edwardian popular music, virtually no interest in his work other than that related to the Titanic and no surviving family, Joyce has almost no online footprint and virtually no biographies on the web, where one might expect to find a photograph of him. Two other images supposedly of Joyce (also non-free) exist on the internet, but their provenance is unclear, and it is next to impossible to conclude where they originated from or if they even depict Joyce.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) A low resolution, slightly modified version of the original scan will be used in Joyce's infobox and only in said infobox.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
Being from Joyce's obituary, the rights of the photograph likely do not belong to the Birmingham Post, and being the image his wife and adopted daughter choose to use for his obituary, it is also the photograph his family wanted him to be remembered with. The scan of the newspaper was taken from Newspapers.com, which is a paid service I accessed via the Wikipedia Library, but even on the redirect page for non-paying users, the obituary and associated image are clearly visible in high quality at the bottom of the page.
