Source
Portion used

The entire painting. Because the image is a work of art, the entire image is needed to identify the artwork, properly convey the subject and meaning intended by the artist, and avoid misrepresenting the artwork.

Low resolution?

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but considerably lower resolution than the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as a replacement for the original artwork.

Other information

Copyright Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa & possibly the estate of the artist.

Purpose of use

Leapaway Girl is arguably Ian Scott's most famous work, and is a historically significant work that could not be conveyed in words. It is held in the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and has been frequently reproduced in publications and commentary. As such this image of Leapaway Girl is used for purposes of information, education and analysis only, in a section of the article concerning the "New Realist"/"Girlie" works, the series of which this painting is part. Any discussion of Ian Scott would not be complete without referring to this work, therefor its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the subject, or the work of the subject, of the article.

Replaceable?

As a work of art still protected by copyright, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows this work of art would also be copyrighted as a derivative work of the original and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. The image is a low resolution copy of the original work and would be unlikely to impact sales of prints or be usable as a desktop backdrop.
