Non-free media rationale for Pennsylvania Station (Baltimore)
Article	Pennsylvania Station (Baltimore)
Purpose of use	Visual depiction of this historic railroad station and its associated station plaza and approaches dominated by a large sculpture.
Replaceable?	The sculpture is non-licensed for use, so no image including it would be free. Because of the non-free artwork's size and close proximity to the main station structure, no free de minimis image is feasible and its inclusion is essential to the reader's identification and comprehension in the encyclopedic article about the associated public railroad station.

Non-free media rationale for Male/Female (Borofsky)
Article	Male/Female (Borofsky)
Purpose of use	Critical commentary about this specific piece of artwork (sculpture) in this setting and the extensive controversy that has ensued since its placement at Penn Station, Baltimore, as discussed in the article
Replaceable?	The sculpture is non-licensed for use, so no image of it would be free, and no image not containing it would suffice for discussion of it itself and in this particular installation/location
