Summary
editAlbum cover of Ange's "Caricatures" - 300x296
Licensing
editThis image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the work or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers
qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. | |
Fair use rationale: This is an image of lower quality than the original and is believed to qualify as fair use as it is only used to illustrate the album in question.
Description |
This is the Front cover for Caricatures (Ange album) by the artist Ange. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to Copyright held by the record company or the artist. |
---|---|
Source |
Derived from a scan of the album cover (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the record company or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless. |
Article | |
Portion used |
Entire front cover, but does not include back or insides of original artwork. |
Low resolution? |
Yes. 300x296px — low per Non-free content criteria according to Wikipedia:Non-free content. Only as much resolution as necessary to identify and show the style of artwork used for the article, not enough to be used for piracy |
Purpose of use |
Main infobox. 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. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Illustrates the appearance of the album and identifies it by recognized features. 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. No free equivalent can equal this image — any would be a derivative of this artwork. |
Other information |
Image in this form is already widely distributed to identify the album as part of catalogs and reviews, so we degrade no market value by providing it ourselves. |

Fair use rationale for the article Caricatures
editThough this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- No free or public domain images exist for this or any album cover.
- This image does not replace the original market role of the album.
- This should and most likely be used only on the article for the album it depicts.
- This image is widely distributed in other venues, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
- This image meets all general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopedic.
- The image significantly illustrates the object of the article.
- The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the album in any way.
- The cover is being used for educational and informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original album in any way, or deprive its copyright holders of any financial gain.
- The image is of lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, and could not be used as artwork on illegal CD copies of the album.
Note that this does not claim fair use in articles other than Caricatures. If you wish to use this image in another article, please add a new fair use rationale below.
