As a consequence the reproducer was not entitled of the rights to reproduce the painting as requested by articles 109 and 110 of the Italian Copyright Law (633/1941). Article 168 binds the violation of moral rights to the regulation on the Copyright Law. Furthermore article 158 disposes the restoration of both material and non-material damages. The illicit reproduction of the painting caused both a loss of earnings for the painter and moral damages because he has never been recognized as author of the work, preventing third party recognition.
