I believe this image of a Coat of Arms qualifies for Fair Use if it is used to represent the institution to which it belongs (Winchester College) and to illustrate its historic Coat of Arms. Copyright in this specific representation resides in the college. --Casper Gutman 17:14, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

- it is used on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation.
