Summary[edit]

The Winged Victory was removed from the Louvre on September 3, 1939 because the curators were afraid that the outbreak of war in Europe could lead to violence in Paris, perhaps even bombing of the museum. The original photo is credited to Noel de Boyer. |

| Portion used |
The entire digitized photograph is used to convey the impression intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
| Low resolution? |
The digitized image of the original photograph is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by Noel de Boyer, Lynn Nichols and the Louvre, without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
| Purpose of use |
The significance of the image is to help the reader identify the historical event, to assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the event, and illustrate the event in a way that words alone could not convey. |
| Replaceable? |
Because it is a photograph of a one-time event in 1939, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the impression intended by Noel de Boyer, Lynn Nichols and the Louvre, would tarnish or misrepresent this person's image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
