Andy Warhol ( 1928 - 1987 ) is one of the singularly most well known Contemporary artists of all time. His imagery is recognized worldwide. His infamous life, artworks, and creative endeavors are like no other artist. He is credited as the very first artist to use common everyday objects and view them in a completely different way while paying homage to their role in our society. Glorifying the common as the beautiful. His technique utilizing a silkscreen method combined with hand finishing in a signature palette of vibrant color hues make the work stand on its own and loved by millions.

In 1964, Warhol appropriated newspaper photographs of Jacqueline Kennedy for a series of dramatic paintings in which he depicted the moments before and after the assassination of her husband, President John F. Kennedy. The works in the series combine two of his signature themes - celebrities and the fragility of life. Now embedded in our national consciousness, the images of a bereft widow in the hours and days after her husband's death reveal emotions that were rarely seen in public. By using images from before and after the event, Warhol created a modern history painting in which the assassination of a president is unseen yet tragically present. The result is one of Warhol's most legendary art works possessing his acute sensitivity in identifying an image as iconic.
