Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) To support encyclopedic discussion of this work in this article.

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws, and the stricter requirements of Wikipedia's non-free content policies, because:

  1. Use of the image on Wikipedia has been granted by gallery, Marianne Boesky, representing the artist who is the subject of the article.
  2. The image is used as the primary means of illustrating a significant point made in the article: "One persistent touchstone is painter Gerhard Richter’s 48 Portraits (1971–72), which memorializes great writers, poets, and composers using images taken from an encyclopedia. Helms’s Untitled (48 Portraits, 2010) (2010) depicts anonymous militiamen and combatants—the distortion of the original, online source images evident in the works—who exist on the fringes of society and represent the shadow of the rational order on view in Richter’s work."
  3. The image is not high-resolution, and is of an installation of multiple drawings rather than an individual work, and so could not be used to illicitly reproduce any artwork.
  4. The image could not be replaced by a comparable image that is not subject to copyright because no such image exists.
