Question juridique clé
Whether the photo montage unlawfully violated Vasella's personality rights.
Solution extraite
The montage did infringe Vasella's personality rights, because he was identifiable and had not consented, but the interference was justified in the political-satirical context.
Motifs extraits
Use of his recognizable head on a foreign nude body affected both the right to one's own image and his professional/social reputation. Yet satire in a referendum campaign enjoys protected scope, and the depiction remained just within the tolerable limits of political confrontation.
