Has the writer actually read Rogers v Koons or seen the original photograph which Koons copied? Koons copied a cute photograph because he knew it was a striking visual image and he could make a lot of money from it.

Koons did not mock the original photograph in his work. It was an exact copy, albeit in a different medium. The court could not find any element of parody in Koon’s sculpture. The court said "it is not really the parody flag that appellants are sailing under, but rather the flag of piracy."

Rogers v Koons is correct.
