The photograph was simply entitled, <i>Puppies</i>, and was used on greeting cards and other generic merchandise. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Jeff_Koons" title="Jeff Koons">Jeff Koons</a>, an internationally known artist, found the picture on a <a href="/wiki/Postcard" title="Postcard">postcard</a> and wanted to make a sculpture based on the photograph for an art show on the theme of banality of everyday items. After removing the copyright label from the postcard, he gave it to his assistants with instructions on how to model the sculpture. He asked that as much detail be copied as possible,<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> though the puppies were to be made blue, their noses exaggerated, and flowers to be added to the hair of the man and woman. </p><p>The sculpture, titled <i>String of Puppies</i>, became a success. Koons sold three copies of it for a total of $367,000. </p><p>Upon discovering that his picture had been copied, Rogers sued Koons and the Sonnabend Gallery for <a href="/wiki/Copyright_infringement" title="Copyright infringement">copyright infringement</a>. Koons admitted to having copied the image intentionally, but attempted to claim <a href="/wiki/Fair_use" title="Fair use">fair use</a> by <a href="/wiki/Parody" title="Parody">parody</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Opinion_of_the_court">Opinion of the court</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Rogers_v._Koons&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Opinion of the court"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The court found both "<a href="/wiki/Substantial_similarity" title="Substantial similarity">substantial similarity</a>" and that Koons had access to the picture. The similarity was so close that the average lay person would recognize the copying, a measure for evaluation. Thus the sculpture was found to be a copy of the work by Rogers. </p><p>On the issue of fair use, the court rejected the parody argument, as Koons could have constructed his parody of that general type of art without copying Rogers' specific work. That is, Koons was not commenting on Rogers' work specifically, and so his copying of that work did not fall under the fair use exception.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

For example, he told his artisans the "work must be just like photo — features of photo must be captured"; later, "puppies need detail in fur. Details — Just Like Photo." Other notes instruct the artisans to "keep man in angle of photo — mild lean to side & mildly forward — same for woman," to "keep woman's big smile," and to "keep [the sculpture] very, very realistic"; again, "Girl's nose is too small. Please make larger as per photo"; another reminds the artisans that "The puppies must have variation in fur as per photo — not just large area of paint — variation as per photo."
