A hand-pulled silkscreen on paper by contemporary artist Paul Stephenson.

London-based artist Paul has spent the last decade researching Andy Warhol’s working process and uses Warhol’s original acetates to create his stunning After Warhol collection.

Dubbed ‘posthumous Warhols’ by the world’s leading Warholian authority, Rainer Crone, the artworks were printed in New York by the Pop Art founder’s original screen printer, Alexander Heinrici, and have been lauded by the BBC and VICE Magazine.

This particular piece is inspired by Andy Warhol’s ‘Early Colored Jackie’ (1964), which depicts the former First Lady of the United States, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (known as ‘Jackie O’). Following the assassination of her husband, President John F Kennedy, on 22nd November 1963, Warhol became captivated by her glamourous image, which was splashed across national newspapers and magazines.
