A Montana wildlife artist is suing Anheuser-Busch for copyright infringement of one of his fishing illustrations.

Artist Jon Q. Wright filed the lawsuit Thursday in U.S. District Court in St. Louis, where the company is headquartered. He has requested damages including profits made from the artwork, that illicit copies be impounded and further use be prohibited.

First Alert 4 has reached out to Anheuser-Busch requesting comment and is awaiting a response.

Wright states in the lawsuit he penned the image in 1999 and copyrighted it the following year. The image depicts a fishing scene with a fish in the foreground and a man in a boat in the background.
