Item Details
Description
A famed screenprint in colors with diamond dust on Lenox Museum Board, titled "Shadows (FS II.267)" by Andy Warhol. Hand signed in pencil and annotated 100/200 on the bottom right. Blindstamp bottom right corner. Published by Rupert Jasen Smith, published by Ronald Feldman Fine Arts, Inc., New York. "Shadows" is a screenprint by Andy Warhol from the artist's 1981 Myths series. The subject is a self-portrait self-portrait in a color-blocking composition which gives sense of two personas or a split self. The complete Myth Series portfolio includes FS II.258-267: The Star, Uncle Sam, The Witch, Mammy, Howdy Doody, Dracula, Mickey Mouse, Superman, Santa Claus, and The Shadow. Each character is meant to represent a different facet of Andy Warhol's personality. Warhol created the collection in the early 1980s, arguably his most prolific period. From a private collection, originally purchased from Hokin Gallery in Florida. Dimensions: 41.5"h x 41.5"w (framed). In very good condition. Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was an American visual artist, film director, and producer who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, advertising, and celebrity culture that flourished by the 1960s, and span a variety of media, including painting, silkscreening, photography, film, and sculpture. Some of his best-known works include the silkscreen paintings Campbell's Soup Cans (1962) and Marilyn Diptych (1962), the experimental films Empire (1964) and Chelsea Girls (1966), and the multimedia events known as the Exploding Plastic Inevitable (1966-67). Today, Warhol's art can be viewed in countless museums and the value of Andy Warhol's work has been on an endless upward trajectory since his death in 1987. In May 2022, Shot Sage Blue Marilyn (1964) sold for $195 million at Christie's, becoming the most expensive American artwork sold at auction.
