    as the "medium of expression" that Congress intended to allow as the substrate to securecopyright pro tection, copyright protection still must be d enied to tattoos.E.ffect of Copyright in Artwork on Tattoos

    49.laintiff Wh itmill inked the subject im age in this case directly onto M ike Tyson.The discussion set forth above ha s considered the precise circum stances of this case. But it isalso worth exploring w hat this case is not. The instant claim differs fundamentally from oneinvolving creation by an artist of an image, such as the one portraye d in Figure 6:Figure 6Ferocity

    50. That painting is a pictorial work. Assum ing it results from original expression (asopposed to being copied from antecedent sources), then Figure 6 may qualify for copyrightprotection. That painting is wholly separate from anyone's body. It therefore poses none of theinvidious consequences catalogued above.

    51. A different case w ould arise to the extent that a tattooist first created an im age asa template, before inking the subject individual. Even in that case, however, the imag e wouldgive the tattooist no right to control application of that same im age to other individuals, for thereasons set forth below.
