Summary
[edit]Fair use for Jim Holdaway
[edit]Though this image, which I have myself scanned from the original art for the Modesty Blaise comic strip #146 (c. November 1963), is subject to © by Peter O'Donnell, its use here is regardless covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- The panel image representatively illustrates an educational article about the comic strip art's creator; its inclusion in the article adds significantly to understanding the text because it is a historical sample of the Holdaway art covered in the critical commentary. It is an example from 1963, and the text states that this is the year that Holdaway's art began on Modesty Blaise. Therefore the image substantially improves the educational value of the article by illustrating the look of early dailies.
- The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic, which directly concerns a visual art.
- It is of much lower resolution than the original, and one day's art only is shown. Any potential copies made from it would be of very inferior quality and unsuitable for any commercial purpose. Moreover, since comic strip stories unfold incrementally over the course of many days or months, a single day's example does not reveal a significant portion of the story. The image is not used here for profit, and its use on Wikipedia does not compete with the copyright holder, Peter O'Donnell, and such use does not decrease the value of the copyright to its holder.
- It is not in any way replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image pertinent to the work referenced in the article, because the whole body of work under discussion in this section of the article is © Peter O'Donnell.
