Artwork description

The Shadow 267 is one of ten screen prints from the Myths (1981) portfolio by Andy Warhol. Warhol is best known for his celebrity portraits featuring the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Kennedy, and more. The Myths collection, however, diverges from Warhol’s traditional work, showcasing various fictional characters that exist only in our fears and fantasies. These characters originate from the pages of our beloved bedtime stories and allegorical tales, as well as our favorite films and television shows. Some are great heroes, others the evilest of villains; some possess supernatural abilities, while others reside in an entirely separate universe; the common thread is that none of them adhere to reality. Still, the portfolio remains aligned with the artist’s fixation on fame and stardom, as the subjects of these prints are icons integral to 20th-century American popular culture. One of the ten prints is unlike the rest: Warhol uses an image of himself to make The Shadow 267.
