No photo-portraits are known to be under free licenses yet. No Russian photos from after 1945 can possibly be public domain in the United States, and photos from earlier can only be public domain if published anonymously by 31 December 1945 and the author remained unknown for at least 70 years, hence finding a free photo of decent quality is often impossible, especially given the disorganized nature of Soviet photo archives, the prevalence of poor documentation of works in them, and ignorance of creative commons licenses among the population of post-Soviet states.

Copyright law about postage stamps and postal covers is strange (in such that items are considered "public domain", but do not permit certain modifications defined by Wikimedia's 4 Freedoms, such as cropping out illustrations, etc). In any case, the low-quality images from such objects that are in a legal "grey area" in regards to their copyright status are not ideal for use in the infobox for visual identification due to the poor quality and accuracy of such illustrations, rendering a fair-use photo-portrait completely irreplaceable.

Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) Image size reduced, just for identification purposes.
