- No free equivalent - Non-free content is allowed to be used where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose - as is the case with this photo.
- Respect for commercial opportunities - Non-free content is not used in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media. Using this image does not do that as this image is not for sale independently.

- Minimal extent of use - Only 1 photo from this photographer is used.
- Previous publication - Published in the stated sources and included in nearly every book about Che Guevara.
- Content - It meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopedic in reference to an image that has been proclaimed one of the "10 photographs that changed the world" Article.
- One-article minimum - Only article this image is used in and its presence significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, with its omission being detrimental to that understanding.
