LabelIn 1966, Andy Warhol established Factory Additions to focus on printmaking and began to publish large editions of screenprints mainly based on imagery from his best-known paintings. This print is from the first portfolio that Factory Additions produced: a set of ten screenprints of the same Marilyn subject (originally derived from a 1953 publicity photo), each print executed in different, purposely misaligned, acid-hued color combinations. |
