Andy Warhol — Flowers (Hand Colored)
Andy Warhol

Flowers (Hand Colored)

1974

A rare hand-colored silkscreen by Andy Warhol depicting a lush floral bouquet rendered in fluid black ink line work accented with washes of sage green and pale blue watercolor. The loose, gestural quality of the coloring gives this work a painterly intimacy distinct from Warhol's purely mechanical prints. Part of Warhol's celebrated Flowers series, this 1974 work bridges his commercial print practice and his roots as a hand-illustrator. Held in the Bruce Museum collection, it was gifted by prominent collector Peter M. Brant.

Medium
Watercolor on silkscreen

Notes

Bilingual museum label (English and Spanish). Accession number: 86.48.10. Spanish title: Flores (coloreadas a mano). Medium in Spanish: Acuarela sobre serigrafía. Work is framed in a natural wood floater frame and displayed behind glazing.
