- Description
-
This print is from a complete portfolio of ten silkscreen prints with hand-coloring by Andy Warhol. They were printed by Alexander Heinrici in numbered editions of 250, and co-published by Peter M. Brant, Castelli Graphics, and Andy Warhol Multiples, Inc. The series is comprised ten botanical images, each hand-colored using Dr. Martin's aniline watercolor dyes, with some printed on Arches paper and others on J. Green wove paper. Warhol used an opaque projector to copy pre-existing floral imagery sourced from the wallpaper book 'Interpretive Flower Design' and adding loose expressive shading to each image. While the screenprint portions of each print in the series is the same, the hand-colored areas change from print to print, group to group; making each print unique as in a series of monoprints.
Feldman & Schellman II lists them as #110 - #119 in the catalogue raisonné. They are being offered here as a complete set of 10 prints for $150,000.
They are signed, dated and numbered #117/250 in pencil on the verso, and initialed AW in pencil, bottom right corner of the sheet on the recto.
