[edit] Licensing

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers

to illustrate an article discussing the book 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 United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information.

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. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.

This book was seminal for Roman Vishniac: it was the first major publication of his and brought him much renown; now the book's title is almost synonymous with the name "Roman Vishniac". It was also one of the earliest and most comprehensive graphic histories of Jewish life at the beginning of the Nazi era, the production of which was one of Vishniac's goals. In Roman Vishniac, this picture is used to show the cover of A Vanished World in the ==References== section. This is apropos because the book was the subject of many cited references. For these reasons, the picture is covered by fair use law and should bbe included in Roman Vishniac for educational purposes.
