*Marylin Diptych*


Artist: Andy Warhol
Title: Marylin Diptych
Date: 1962
Material: Acrylic on Canvas
Location: Tate Gallery, London
Significance: This piece seems to be the most known and unknown Andy Warhol piece. Almost everyone has seen it before but not many know who or what it is. There are many different variations of this picture. The 25 black and white replicas to the right can be viewed as the ups and downs in Ms.Monroe's career. This is considered one of his "break out" pieces.
