Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual ArtsĪ federal trial judge said Goldsmith’s copyright was not violated because the work was transformative and therefore constituted fair use. Images from Andy Warhol's series on the musician Prince.
Three years later, Vanity Fair licensed the photo and asked Warhol to produce a series of 16 silkscreen prints based on it, which became a cover for an issue of the magazine. When one of the Warhol images was republished in a tribute issue, Goldsmith said it infringed her copyright, and the issue wound up in court.
At the heart of the case is a picture of Prince, then a rising star, taken in 1981 by renowned photographer Lynn Goldsmith. She posed him against a white background after applying purple eyeshadow and lip gloss.
