(WP:NFCC#1)
No photo-portraits are known to be under free licenses yet. No Russian photos from after 1945 can possibly be public domain in the United States (and Baltic photos have even longer copyright terms), and photos from earlier can only be public domain if published anonymously by 31 December 1945 and the author remained unknown for at least 70 years, hence finding a free photo of decent quality is often impossible, especially given the disorganized nature of Soviet photo archives, the prevalence of poor documentation of works in them, and ignorance of creative commons licenses among the population of post-Soviet states. No other quality photos available, and the subject is dead, so this is irreplaceable.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) Image size reduced, just for identification purposes.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
Obscure photographer is likely deceased given the age of the photo, and resolution is low.
Other information The subject of the photograph has been deceased since 1994.
