This image is of a drawing, painting, print, or other two-dimensional work of art, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the artist who produced the image, the person who commissioned the work, or the heirs thereof. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of works of art for critical commentary on the work in question, the artistic genre or technique of the work of art or the school to which the artist belongs 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 uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content 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.

[edit] Fair use for Triptych_May-June,_1973.jpg

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use provisions in the English Wikipedia article Triptych, May–June 1973, which is a work by Francis Bacon, for the following reasons:

1. The death of George Dyer, the man portrayed in the painting, was a significant influence on the realization of the artwork to which the article incorporating this painting, here on the English Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/), this 06:38, 30 November 2007 (UTC), does refer.
2. The image is only being used for informational purposes.
3. The image is not of a high-enough resolution to be satisfactorily printed on a contemporary 4x6 photo printer and held to one's fridge with a magnet as an aesthetic accompaniment to a grocery list on which bacon, ironically, is one of the items to be shopped for.
4. The image is readily available on the internet.
