Deluxe limited edition of Warhol's Reigning Queens; inscribed by him to close friend Brigid Berlin
Deluxe limited edition of Warhol's definitive pop art portfolio. Octavo, original publisher's embossed wrappers, containing sixteen color plates of the original silkscreens. One of 5000 numbered copies, this is number 248. Association copy, inscribed by Warhol on the flyleaf, "to Bridg love Andy Warhol." The recipient, Brigid Berlin was a major presence in Warhol's creative sphere, from the Factory to the Interview offices. In 1964, she left behind her society roots and attached herself to Warhol's original factory, her obsessive recordings and photography providing documentary to those frenetic years. Her recordings provided much of the material for The Philosophy of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again. In fine condition. Housed in a custom chemise slipcase.
Warhol's classic work of sixteen silkscreen portraits, Reigning Queens contains a portfolio of sixteen portraits: four prints each of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, Queen Ntfombi Twala of Swaziland and Queen Margrethe II of Denmark. Warhol used official photographs of each Queen regnant overlaid with Warhol's trademark abstract color blocks.
