Description	Page from the wordless novel Vertigo (1937) by American artist Lynd Ward.
Source	Scan from book.
Portion used	One image.
Low resolution?	The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original book cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.
Other information	This image is from the Lynd Ward's book, Vertigo. The image is only meant as an illustration of the contents of the book. Copyright of the image belongs to the estate of Lynd Ward, the author of the book.

Non-free media rationale for Vertigo (wordless novel)
Article	Vertigo (wordless novel)
Purpose of use	To illustrate the main infobox of the Vertigo (wordless novel) article. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as art. As it is a work of visual arts, 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 a 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. It illustrates the style of artwork found within the book. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original work, namely the creator's ability to provide art services.
Replaceable?	Copyrighted book and artwork; by nature, no freely-licensed alternative exists. The image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the contents of the book would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different image in the infobox would be misleading as to the identity of the work.

This image represents a two-dimensional work of art, such as a drawing, painting, print, or similar creation. The copyright for this image is likely owned by either the artist who created it, the individual who commissioned the work, or their legal heirs. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of artworks:

for purposes of critical commentary on:
- the specific work in question,
- the artistic genre or technique employed in the artwork, or
- the artistic school or tradition to which the artist is associated,
as applied within the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers located in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law.

Any other use of this image, whether on Wikipedia or elsewhere, could potentially constitute a copyright infringement. For further information, please refer to Wikipedia's guidelines on non-free content.
