[edit] Summary

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Ralph Bown
Description	Ralph Bown
Source	see here
Article	Ralph Bown
Portion used	100%
Low resolution?	Is low and only as much resolution as necessary to identify and show the person described in the article, not enough to be used for piracy
Purpose of use	It is a historically significant photo of a famous individual work. Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the subject of this article.
Replaceable?	No free equivalent is available. The subject of the photograph is deceased, therefore a "new" image can not be created of this person. A free image may not exist, but in the event of a free image being located for this person in the future, this image should be deleted as soon as possible.

[edit] Licensing:

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.

The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion as established by these terms of use.

It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:

the person(s), product, event, or subject in question
where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it
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. Any other usage of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.

Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.
