The copyright holder for his image is the Office for the Canonization Cause of Óscar Arnulfo Romero of the San Salvador Archdiocese. The image qualifies for publication here under the “fair use” doctrine because all four of the “fair use” factors under section 107 of the Copyright Act, title 17, U. S. Code, favor its use. Specifically: (1) the purpose and character of the use is for nonprofit educational purposes, and not for commercial use; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work is historical and comes from a published source; (3) there was proportionate use, as only a cropped version of one photograph out of a series of several photographs is being used; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work will not be negative, since the photograph has been widely disseminated and published before. Additionally, copying of photographs to provide public with fullest information on major historical event is fair use. Time Inc. v. Bernard Geis Associates, 293 F.Supp. 130 (1968).
