Summary[edit]

Cover of "John Cage: Etudes Australes (Books 1 and 2)" (Grete Sultan, piano). Tomato TOM 300 841, 2LP

Fair use rationale for Etudes Australes[edit]

Although this image is subject to copyright laws I (Jashiin) feel and assert that it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. No free or public domain images have been located for this recording.
2. The image is of lower resolution than the original cover.
3. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the recording in any way.
4. For an article about the piece recorded, the cover artwork for the first, definitive recording by the dedicatee of the work is very important and adds significantly to the article.
5. This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible than it already is.
6. The cover is being used for informational purposes only.

Licensing[edit]

This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the work or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers solely to illustrate the audio recording in question, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
