- Lot Description
(New York/Pennsylvania, 1928-1987)
Marilyn Monroe (Feldman & Schellmann II.28), edition 218/250, from the portfolio Marilyn Monroe, 1967, signed in pencil verso lower left "Andy Warhol", dated, stamped, and numbered, Factory Additions, New York, publisher, Aetna Silkscreen Products Inc., printer, screenprint in colors, 36 x 36 in. (91.44 x 91.44 cm.); white frame, 37-1/4 x 37-1/4 in.
Note: "In August 62, I started doing silkscreens. I wanted something stronger that gave more of an assembly line effect. With silkscreening you pick a photograph, blow it up, transfer it in glue onto silk, and then roll ink across it so the ink goes through the silk but not through the glue. That way you get the same image, slightly different each time. It was all so simple quick, and chancy. I was thrilled with it. When Marilyn Monroe happened to die that month, I got the idea to make screens of her beautiful face the first Marilyns." - Andy WarholWarhol lifted his iconic image from a publicity image taken while Marilyn was working on the 1953 box office hit Niagara.
