Andy Warhol (1928-1987)
Queen Beatrix
1985 | silk-screen print (royal edition), diamond dust | 99 × 79 cm
Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands is one of the four rulers portrayed by Andy Warhol in his Reigning Queens series.
Pop Art pioneer Warhol made four different silkscreen prints of each portrait, where he varied the basic colours and composition of the colour blocks. The resulting work looks like a collage. This print, where diamond dust was applied to the portrait when wet, is the royal edition.
