I don't know, and quite possibly the photographer's name is lost to history. |
| Source (WP:NFCC#4) | A file from a 2002 ICES symposium, here: http://www.ices.dk/sites/pub/Publication%20Reports/Marine%20Science%20Symposia/Phase%202/ICES%20Marine%20Science%20Symposia%20-%20Volume%20215%20-%202002%20-%20Part%2012%20of%2070.pdf |
| Date of publication | 1906 |
| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Saint Andrew (ship) |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | Show what the captain of the Saint Andrew looked like. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Can't be replaced. Taken in 1906, the subject died many decades ago. |
| Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Well, "a picture is worth a thousand words". I suppose I could use a thousand words describing the subject, but that would unbalance the article to a woeful degree. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | It's a tiny, grainy, poorly defined image. It's a small excerpt from a much larger work (a group photo). It's used once, in the one article (there is never going to be a separate article on Chicagov). |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
Commercial opportunities, phhht. I'd pay someone to not make look at this tiny ugly photo. That's the only commercial opportunity -- "Look at this. Now give me a dollar or I'll show it to you again", heh. |
| Other information | I'm considering this an excerpt, just like an excerpt from an article. It shows about 10% of the people in the original photo, and more like 5% of the area of the original photo. So, fair use.
I'm not sure the original group photo is even under copyright. It was taken 1906 which was 110 years ago now. If the photographer is known, it's likely he died in the years 1906-1926, what with the war and civil war and red terror and all -- hella people did die in Russia during this period. However, maybe he didn't, and if he didn't or if he's unknown, I think the original photo is probably under copyright. |
