(WP:NFCC#1)
This historic image shows Alexander at work, demonstrating a point of dinosaur biomechanics with a model. Even if another photo is out of copyright, it will not show the zoologist's character in as clear a way.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This is the only photo of Alexander in the article, or indeed anywhere on Wikipedia, and the only non-free image. It is used cropped and at poor resolution.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
It seems quite unlikely given Alexander's relative fame; further, the image is already available online at the named source at better resolution.
Other information The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 21 March 2016
