Summary

File information
Description	Close Up of the Pike Place Pig.
Source	I created this work entirely by myself.
Date	6-22-2008
Author	TriviaKing (talk). However, there is no freedom of panorama for statues in the United States. As such, this work must be considered non-free.

Non-free media information and use rationale true for Pike Place Market
Description	Close up of "Rachel", the bronze sculpture of a pig that functions as the unofficial mascot of Pike Place Market and the associated Market Foundation.
Source	Photo by TriviaKing; sculpture by Georgia Gerber
Article	Pike Place Market
Portion used	The photo shows about half of the sculpture
Low resolution?	Since this is a 3D object, I'm not sure how that applies, but certainly not a notably hi-res image. We could reduce resolution for article purposes if someone thinks that would improve the fair use rationale.
Purpose of use	Rachel is one of the two or three best-known symbols of the Market and the best-known symbol of the Foundation, and an informal Seattle landmark (Seattleites meeting downtown will often say "meet me by the Pig"). We have a two-paragraph section of the article about this sculpture and its "progeny" (other pig sculptures around the Market and elsewhere in Seattle). Hard to imagine omitting an image of the sculpture itself.
Replaceable?	No
