Summary[edit]

Portrait of General Sergei Nikiforovich Kruglov (died in 1977). Downloaded from [1], a page displaying the copyright logo Copyright © Steen Ammentorp 2000 - 2008 and indicating the author of the image as Ilya Mukhin.

The image is intended for use under the fair use claim in the article Sergei Kruglov to illustrate the article's subject, a deceased Soviet official.

The subject is deceased, so the image is not replaceable and the uploader has been unable to locate a free image with the same content after considerable searching. The image is low resolution and its use in the Wikipedia article Sergei Kruglov is believed to have no effect on the copyright holder's commercial opportunities. The image's use in the article Sergei Kruglov adds significant encyclopedic value to the article by providing a portrait of the article's subject.
