Summary
[edit]This image, featuring Shmulik Kraus (b. 1935) in his youth, said to be from his personal archives, was uploaded to the Hebrew Wikipedia in 2013 and has been displaying in his article ever since.
In the image description, the uploader notes that copyrights for this image have expired in Israel, per section 38 of the 2007 Israeli copyright law. In short, it is PD in Israel, so it cannot violate US copyright law. Therefore, I contend that it more than meets this fair use criteria.
I'd like to make it crystal clear: it is not possible to infringe the copyright holder of this image, because no such copyright holder exists, again, by virtue of these copyrights having expired.
For reference, the legislation is recorded here: https://main.knesset.gov.il/Activity/Legislation/Laws/Pages/LawPrimary.aspx?t=lawlaws&st=lawlaws&lawitemid=2000641
Licensing
[edit]This image is a faithful digitisation of a unique historic image, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who created the image or the agency employing the person. It is believed that the use of this image may qualify as non-free 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. Please remember that the non-free content criteria require that non-free images on Wikipedia must not "[be] used in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media." Use of historic images from press agencies must only be of a transformative nature, when the image itself is the subject of commentary rather than the event it depicts (which is the original market role, and is not allowed per policy). | |||
