Dont confuse selling a picture for selling the rights to a picture.

An NFT could include the rights to the actual art itself, but most likely youre buying a sole reproduction. Similar to how going and buying a copy of a photograph at the store doesnt necessarily give you the explicit right to reproduce it for profit. Copyright is different from possession. NFTs are possession, unless they spell out that the purchase also transfers the copyright.
