The American artist, director and producer that is Andy Warhol was always working throughout his career on a series of silkscreen prints inspired by Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic Mona Lisa painting. In fact, between 1928 and 1987 the renowned artist honed his work until he eventually created what is now known as the ‘Double Mona Lisa’.
Well, the artwork’s journey doesn’t stop there as after one of the pieces was bought for around $215,000 at the 2002 Post-War & Contemporary Art Sale at Christie’s London, the silkscreen is set to lead the way for a new and exciting collaborative BE@RBRICK toy. Specifically, the print is set to adorn toys that arrive in the brand’s 100% and 400% sizes, meaning that at least you will have options as to how large you want your new purchase to be.
Take a look at the collaborative pieces between the Andy Warhol Foundation and Medicom Toy below, if you like what you see then you are in luck as the item is set to drop this September for the price of ¥12,000 and ¥48,000 (approximately £80 and £330).
