Description: Andy Warhol original hand signed offset lithograph of The Beatles (George Harrison, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr). Provenance: Santa Barbara California estate Created: 1980 Work is signed by Andy Warhol lower left, in black marker 12.25 x 36 inches Some creasing between portraits but otherwise in very good condition. Authenticity is guaranteed About the work, from The National Galleries of Scotland: In 1980, a book called ‘The Beatles’ was published about the British pop group. Warhol designed the front cover which is based on a photograph by the celebrity photographer Dezo Hoffmann. Warhol has incorporated blocks of irregularly shaped colour, which, although screenprinted, appear like collaged fragments of coloured paper. The hand-drawn lines have also been printed. The vibrant, contrasting colours are characteristic of Warhol's work and evoke similarities with psychedelic album covers that The Beatles produced in the 1960s. Warhol is, however, more associated with The Rolling Stones than The Beatles, preferring their ‘bad-boy’ image to The Beatles' ‘squeaky clean’ look.
