Andy Warhol (American, 1928 - 1987) Marilyn Suite of Ten, Screenprint on museum board, ""Andy Warhol (American, 1928 - 1987) Marilyn Suite of Ten, Screenprint on museum board, From Sunday B. Morning Portfolio. Published December 2011, with Sunday B. Morning Certificate of Authenticity. Dimensions: h: 36 x w: 36 in. each. Published in Switzerland from Warhol`s original screens, Sunday B. Morning prints are authorized reproductions which are noted in the Andy Warhol Catalogue Raisonne. Sunday B. Mornings were originally intended as a Warhol joke...with a stamp on the back which said `fill in your name here`. They are considered to be authentic reproductions and were authorized and included in the Catalogue Raisonne. Barbara DeVorzon writes on her website: In 1967, Andy Warhol made a Portfolio of 10 screen print portraits of Marilyn Monroe from the publicity photo for the 1953 film """"""""Niagara."""""""" The portfolios of 10 screen prints were printed in an original edition of 250. All of the prints from the original edition of 250 were signed in pencil and numbered with a rubber stamp on verso; some signed in pen; some initialed on verso; some dated. Aside from this edition, 26 complete sets of Artist`s Proofs were printed, signed and lettered A-Z on verso. The first edition of the Marilyn and Flowers series were very successful and many hoped the artist would print another edition. In the 1970`s Warhol worked with German and Belgian printers for his European exhibitions. They proposed an edition of the Marilyn`s and Flower`s for the European market. However, Warhol was not interested and refused to help with a European edition. The original screens were brought to Europe anyway and the first unauthorized prints were produced in slightly different colors from the original portfolio. The edition of 250 unauthorized prints were stamped in black on verso, """"""""Published by Sunday B. Morning"""""""" and """"""""Fill in Your own Signature."""""""" Andy Warhol inscribed some prints, """"""""This is not by me"""""""" and was well aware of the European editions and came to accept them as they were printed and published by two of his close friends. Due to the popularity of the first unauthorized edition, Sunday B. Morning has continued publishing the prints from the original screens. The subsequent editions are published in original colors, not numbered, and are stamped in blue ink to mark the difference with the first edition. Starting Price: $1600
