[edit] Fair use rationale

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use because:

It is an historically significant photograph of TE Lawrence. He had a motorcycle accident which led to his death.

Please, elaborate on that.
It is likely to have been taken on delivery of one of Lawrence's new Brough Superior's

"Likely" is not strong enough.
~~It is dated around the time of the publication of Lawrence's writing "Revolt In The Desert", when a large number of publicity photographs were taken~~

Not a fair use argument

Why? It's a publicity shot, which is fair use! - Trident13 14:55, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

It's likely PD but most publicity shots aren't fair use unless it was release in a press kit by the person, which seems unlikely. Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 18:31, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)
~~The photograph is only being used for informational purposes~~

Not a fair use argument.
~~It is already displayed on the Dutch Wiki page~~

Not a fair use argument.

The original can be found, amongst many other places, at: http://www.britishartists.co.uk/david%20langford/lawrence_2.htm

The series of publicity shots, taken before he left for India, can be found at: http://www.telstudies.org/gallery/photos/1922-35/l4009.htm

It is likely that the copyright is expired. Copyright law in England provides for a limit of 70 years. Anything produced or published before 1936 would no longer be protected. --Blue Tie 15:45, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree it's likely PD those images. Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 18:31, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

This image is a faithful digitalization of a unique historic photograph, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the photographer who took the photograph or the agency employing the photographer. It is believed that the use of this photograph

to illustrate the event in question where:
The photograph depicts a non-reproducible historic event, and no free alternative exists or can be created, and
The image is low resolution and of no larger and of no higher quality than is necessary for the illustration of an article, and the use of the image on Wikipedia is not expected to decrease the value of the copyright,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information.

If this does not accurately describe this image, please remove this tag and provide a different fair use rationale.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
