This photo is believed to qualify for fair use on the Eric Von Schmidt article for a number of reasons, namely:

It is a photo of a (deceased) historically significant figure, as Von Schmidt was an extremely important person in the late '50s and early '60s folk scene, inspiring and mentoring the likes of Joan Baez and Bob Dylan.
It is used solely for educational and illustrative purposes on this article - no Public Domain files exist of Schmidt.
It is of lower resolution than the original, so as not to infringe on copyrights and the original commercial interests and intentions of the author and/or copyright holder.

This photograph is copyrighted and is NOT under a free license. However, it is believed that the use of this work:

to provide visual identification of one or more specific individual(s), or an identifiable gathering of them,
where the individual(s) concerned are deceased, or where access would for practical purposes be impossible,
and for whom there is no known representation under a 'free' license,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Copyrights.
