Question

Can copyright prevent the duplication of a work of art?

Answer 1

if you use it in a certain way yes but pls don't do that

Answer 2

Like anything else that can be copyrighted, the artwork is protected by copyright when the art is affixed in a tangible form (such as a painting, sculpture, or drawing). You have to register your copyright with the US Copyright Office if you want to be able to take infringers to court and be awarded damages
