| Portion used |
single downsampled image |
| Low resolution? |
yes (<100k pixels) - The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but much lower resolution than the original poster. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as counterfeit artwork, pirate versions or for uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
| Purpose of use |
It is intended to show: (a) a representative image of the poster itself, which is discussed in the adjoining text; and (b) its naturalistic depiction of a giant squid "in action", for which artist Glen Loates is famous and which is the subject of commentary in the associated caption. |
| Replaceable? |
As poster art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the same artwork or poster would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. |
| Other information |
