File talk:Piglet EHShepard.jpg

Hello - I've already started a thread on this at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions#Illustration_of_Piglet_by_E.H._Shepard. I don't wish to contravene any copyright issues, though I'm hoping that the image may be used on "fair use" basis: I think it's quite important to have a sample of E.H. Shepard's original conception of the character, since he illustrated the original publication of A.A. Milne's stories and his work is closely identified in the minds of many readers with the original characters. Obviously we can't do this without using one or other of his original illustrations. I do hope it will be possible to keep this, since one of E.H. Shepard's illustrations is allowed to stand in the Winnie-the-Pooh article, and also there's a Disney illustration of Piglet already on the Piglet (Winnie-the-Pooh) page which has been allowed to stand for many years, though it's of more recent provenance.
