Andy Warhol is best known for his 1960s Pop Art. Yet some of his most coveted subjects were conceived in the 1980s. His fascination with fame and celebrity still endured, but he also turned his attention to more philanthropic concerns. Sotheby’s upcoming Prints & Multiples sale (9 – 17 March) offers the complete set of his Endangered Species series, as well as a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II and iconic images representing the consumer society of 1980s.
