Although this image, Mountbatten_4_august_1947.jpg, may be subject to copyright, I (Fowler&fowler«Talk» 16:15, 26 April 2007 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a low resolution copy of the original;
2. the image is significant because it is of one of the most famous images of the partition of British India.
