Lucy Philip Mair. Photograph by Lotte Meitner-Graf. Low-resolution use of photograph to illustrate the project. As the subject is deceased, no free equivalent could reasonably be obtained or created to replace this image. Its appearance here is contended to be a fair use, since it is used solely for educational purposes in a not-for-profit research project  and is necessary for cultural and historical purposes. It is believed that the material value of the possible copyright is not lessened by its use here and that the use of this image to illustrate the purpose of the research programme falls under the "Non-profit educational" clause of the Fair Use doctrine currently upheld by United States law (17 U.S.C. § 107). For the same reasons, the portion of the copyrighted work used is of inherently lower quality than the original, reducing the risk of competitiveness and therefore the effects of this copy on the market for or value of versions held by the owner of the copyright.

It is an unpublished archival historic photograph, of unknown authorship and created more than 25 years ago, without copyright information.
