| Portion used |
Small cropped area of the gatefold encompassing the photograph and credits |
| Low resolution? |
yes - and scanning faults. Image resolution sufficient to discern the main credits, but no more. |
| Purpose of use |
Other. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. To illustrate the divisions within the band - the image of the group is the first on a Floyd album since 1971's Meddle, and was designed to let fans know that Waters was no longer a part of the group. Credits included to illustrate that Richard Wright was a contributor only.. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public. |
| Replaceable? |
As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Not possible |
