Four Marilyns Andy Warhol Analysis

The “Four Marilyns” painting is made with acrylic silkscreen ink by Andy Warhol based on the way it looks and I am familiar with this photographic silkscreen presented. The medium of the painting is only using the acrylic paint to portray Marilyn Monroe in the same picture 4 times as it looks like a collage of her. The painting is well detailed down to her features, teeth, and her makeup with an orange background on the canvas. Andy Warhol’s choice of media contributed to how I understand the meaning or content of this is by making Marilyn Monroe look realistic in the painting because other artists probably wouldn’t have put makeup or her mole on the painting. I think he chose this particular type of media such as a photographic silkscreen,
