Fair use for Sigurður Þórarinsson[edit]

Though this image may be subject to copyright, I feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. It is an image of a non-living person and thus not easily replaceable by a free image.
2. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the book in any way.
3. Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the subject of the article.
