Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Colour photograph of J. R. R. Tolkien sitting by a large pine tree, wearing jacket and waistcoat
Author or copyright owner	not known
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Original publication: not known Immediate source: https://nerdalicious.com.au/books/why-peter-jackson-will-never-film-the-silmarillion/
Date of publication	c. 1965
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Hobbit
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Show Tolkien's resemblance to a hobbit, with his liking for trees and nature, and his wearing a waistcoat, as described in the text, cited to one of his letters (#213, 25 October 1958)
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	There isn't one, as all photographs of Tolkien are in copyright.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	The image is cropped from the original and reduced in resolution. It is used only here, and is the only non-free image in the article
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The image has been available on the Web for many years now. Tolkien died in 1973 and there has been ample time for the commercialisation of his works. The publication of one low-resolution photograph here will make no appreciable difference.
