| Article | |

Entire front cover, but does not include back or insides of original artwork |
| Low resolution? |
Is 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. The image is being used as the primary means of visual identification of the subject.. 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. Any derivative work based upon the cover art would be a copyright violation, so creation of a free image is not possible. |
| Other information |
Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under the copyright law of the United States as described above. |
