After Andy Warhol a lithograph by Sunday B Morning from the famous Marylin series

After Andy Warhol a lithograph by Sunday B Morning from the famous Marilyn series, number 11.2, in fluorescent pink and orange colour way printed on museum board paper. Stamped on the back in blue "Fill inn your own Signature, Sunday B Morning" With certificate of Authenticity. Framed in white frame with UV protective perspex.

Andy Warhol published his famous “Factory Editions” of Marilyn, Flowers and Campbell’s Soup Cans, he began collaborating with two anonymous friends from Belgium in 1970 on a second series of prints.

The original idea behind this partnership for Warhol was to play on the concept of mass production. Andy loved to comment on this phenomenon through his art.

The new prints were exacting in detail to the Factory Editions and so Warhol was essentially mocking the idea that the Factory Edition prints were somehow more important than these new prints.

There are many publishers are out there who have tried to reproduce these impressions, but none come close to the integrity of a Sunday B. Morning. This is because only Sunday B. Morning possesses the photo negatives needed to create silkscreens exactly like the ones Andy Warhol used for his Factory Editions. 

Their work looked exactly like the Factory Editions…and why wouldn’t they? These prints were created with exactly the same tools and methods Andy Warhol himself had used for the original Factory Editions.

Andy Warhol himself gave two Belgians the tools to create Sunday B. Morning, much to his later regret. Because he had handed over the tools for the prints to be published, filing a suit would have been difficult. So when he periodically ran across a Sunday B. Morning print, Warhol would sign them “This is not by me. Andy Warhol” to express his ironic dissatisfaction. This of course only made the prints more sought after, especially the ones he signed in defiance.
