1. No free alternative exists or could be created.
2. It is use purely to illustrate the subject discussed.
3. It is of lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
4. It does not limit the rights of the copyright owner to market or sell the work in any way.
5. The image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the original work.
6. It is possibly in the public domain, as both this and a photo of Shackleton were taken by the same photographers before the expedition set out.
