(WP:NFCC#1)
The purpose is to show how Tolkien envisioned the character, and a free image wouldn't accomplish that in the same way as Tolkien's own illustration.
Not replaceable with
textual coverage because
(WP:NFCC#1)
This illustration was painted by Tolkien himself, so it's the best way to show how he envisioned the character.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) It's fairly low resolution, and is only used in the article about the character it illustrates.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
Low resolution, a person could not make an acceptable quality print for this copy. Prints or reproductions made by the copyright holder thus should not lose value or marketability.
