About this work

Andy Warhol's Flower paintings from 1964 represent a significant departure from his iconic depictions of consumer products and celebrity portraits. Inspired by a photograph of hibiscus blossoms in the June 1964 issue of Modern Photography magazine, Warhol embarked on a series of vibrant and colorful flower paintings that would come to define a pivotal moment in his artistic career.Unlike Warhol's earlier works, which often explored themes of mass production and consumer culture, the Flower paintings exude a sense of joy, beauty, and serenity. Rendered in bold and contrasting hues against monochromatic backgrounds, these paintings capture the essence of the flowers while simultaneously transcending their natural form to become iconic symbols of pop art.Warhol's Flower paintings are characterized by their graphic simplicity and repetition, with multiple iterations of the same floral motif arranged in grid-like compositions. This repetition serves to underscore Warhol's fascination with mass production and the mechanized reproduction of images, while also imbuing the paintings with a sense of rhythm and dynamism.The Flower paintings are notable for their use of synthetic polymer paint, a medium that Warhol favored for its vibrant colors and quick-drying properties. This allowed him to execute the paintings with remarkable speed and efficiency, further emphasizing his interest in the mechanization of art production.Despite their seemingly straightforward subject matter, Warhol's Flower paintings are ripe with symbolism and ambiguity. While on the surface they appear as cheerful and decorative, they also invite viewers to contemplate deeper questions about the nature of beauty, authenticity, and the role of art in contemporary society.In many ways, Warhol's Flower paintings can be seen as a celebration of the ephemeral and the transient. By immortalizing these fleeting moments of natural beauty in his iconic style, Warhol invites viewers to pause and appreciate the simple pleasures of life in an increasingly mechanized and consumer-driven world.Overall, Andy Warhol's Flower paintings from 1964 represent a fascinating chapter in the artist's oeuvre, showcasing his ability to transform everyday subjects into enduring symbols of pop art. Through their bold colors, graphic compositions, and underlying themes, these paintings continue to captivate and inspire audiences around the world, cementing Warhol's legacy as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.

About the Flowers Series

Andy Warhol's Flowers stand among the most recognisable and widely collected images in twentieth-century printmaking. First exhibited as paintings at the Leo Castelli Gallery in 1964, the motif was translated into the definitive 1970 screenprint portfolio (Feldman & Schellmann II.64–73) published by Factory Additions. This portfolio is the canonical edition through which most collectors today acquire a Warhol Flowers print.

What Is the Flowers Series?

The composition is deceptively simple: four flat hibiscus blooms hovering against a densely abstracted ground of grass. Warhol stripped the image of depth and naturalism, rendering the petals as bold, poster-flat shapes that float between the decorative and the abstract. The colour treatment is the series' engine — across the ten prints the palette ranges from near-naturalistic to wholly artificial, transforming the same four blooms into electric, mood-shifting variations.

The source image was a photograph of hibiscus flowers by Patricia Caulfield, originally published in a 1964 photography magazine. Caulfield's subsequent legal claim over Warhol's appropriation was settled out of court — an episode now regarded as a landmark moment in the law of artistic appropriation and a defining footnote in the series' history.

Edition and Production Details

The 1970 portfolio comprises ten screenprints on Arches 88 paper, each measuring approximately 36 × 36 inches. The edition consists of 250 signed and numbered impressions plus 26 artist's proofs, published by Factory Additions, New York. Each sheet was signed by Warhol — typically in ballpoint or felt-tip pen on the verso — and stamp-numbered, the standard markers collectors and specialists rely on for the 1970 edition.

Individual Works and Top Variants

  • FS II.64 — black ground with vivid magenta blooms; the most iconic and sought-after image in the set, and the one most frequently reproduced.
  • FS II.68 — a softer register, with mint and pink blooms against a pale white ground, prized for its decorative balance.
  • FS II.73 — a deep, jewel-toned variant in purple and gold, among the richest colourways in the portfolio.

Each impression in the portfolio carries its own collector following, but the high-contrast, saturated examples consistently command the strongest attention.

Market and Price Context

The Flowers prints occupy a stable and liquid corner of the Warhol market. Individual screenprints from the 1970 edition typically trade between $25,000 and $80,000 at auction, with price determined by colourway, condition, freshness to market and provenance. The original 1964 canvases occupy an entirely different tier, achieving seven figures and beyond when they appear.

Part of the series' enduring market resilience lies in its decorative versatility — the images sit comfortably in both rigorous Pop collections and contemporary interiors — combined with deep institutional validation. Flowers appears in virtually every major museum Pop holding worldwide, reinforcing both scholarly importance and long-term value.

Authentication

Given the image's popularity, careful authentication is essential. Genuine 1970 portfolio impressions are documented in the Feldman & Schellmann catalogue raisonné (II.64–73) and should display the correct paper (Arches 88), dimensions, signature and stamped numbering. Provenance documentation and condition reporting — with attention to light exposure, paper tone and any restoration — are central to valuation. We advise acquiring only impressions with verifiable catalogue references and clear ownership history.

About Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol prints for sale and Andy Warhol paintings for sale at Guy Hepner Gallery, New York. Our inventory spans screenprints, silkscreens, and unique works across his most collected series: Marilyn Monroe, Campbell's Soup, Mao, Flowers, Myths, Ads, Cowboys and Indians, Dollar Signs, Cars, and Reigning Queens — all with full provenance and Feldman & Schellmann catalogue raisonné references. We also acquire Warhol. Contact our team for a free valuation.

Andy Warhol (1928–1987) is the defining figure of American Pop Art and the most commercially traded artist of the twentieth century. Born Andrew Warhola in Pittsburgh to Slovak immigrant parents, he rose from commercial illustrator to the architect of a cultural movement that permanently dissolved the boundary between fine art and mass media. His Manhattan studio, The Factory, became the epicentre of New York art and celebrity culture from the early 1960s until his death in February 1987.

Andy Warhol Art For Sale

Andy Warhol art for sale spans an extraordinary range of subjects, media, and price points — from intimate drawings and unique canvas paintings to large signed editions. His signature subjects include Campbell's Soup Cans, Marilyn Monroe, Mao Zedong, Dollar Signs, Flowers, Reigning Queens, Cowboys and Indians, the Ads portfolio, and the late Cars and Endangered Species series. Each body of work reflects his obsessive engagement with repetition, celebrity, and commodity culture.

The market benchmark for Warhol was set in May 2022 when Shot Sage Blue Marilyn (1964) sold at Christie's New York for $195 million — the highest price ever achieved at auction for an American artwork. Recent print sales confirm sustained institutional demand: Mao editions achieved $4,648,000 each at Christie's in May 2025; Flowers editions achieved $4,076,000 and $3,832,000 at Sotheby's in the same season.

Andy Warhol Paintings For Sale

Andy Warhol paintings for sale — unique acrylics and silkscreens on canvas — represent the rarest and most valuable tier of his output. Subjects produced in multiple unique variations include Flowers, Skulls, Shadows, Dollar Signs, and the late Oxidation Paintings. The Rorschach series (1984) and Camouflage works appeal strongly to institutional collectors. Abstract Expressionism paintings from the late 1970s and early 1980s remain undervalued relative to his iconic print series and represent a compelling collecting opportunity.

Andy Warhol paintings require substantial documentation: exhibition history, gallery receipts, and provenance tracing to The Factory or first-generation dealers. Prices range from mid-five figures for works on paper to eight figures for major canvas paintings. Our team can advise on current pricing and condition assessment across all painting categories.

Andy Warhol Prints For Sale

Warhol's screenprints represent the most accessible and widely collected segment of his output. Andy Warhol prints for sale range from early unsigned offset lithographs to hand-signed, numbered editions produced with Castelli Graphics, Factory Editions, and Ronald Feldman Fine Arts. Signed, numbered editions from key series — Marilyn Monroe (1967), Flowers (1970), Mao (1972), Ads (1985), Endangered Species (1983), Cowboys and Indians (1986), and Reigning Queens (1985) — command the strongest collector demand and the deepest secondary market liquidity.

Condition, provenance, and edition size are the critical variables. Works printed on Lenox Museum Board or high-grade rag paper with consistent registration and original colouration are the most desirable. Fading, foxing, or retouching materially affects value.

Andy Warhol Cars Prints For Sale

The Cars portfolio (F.S. II.356–362), produced in 1985 as a commission from Mercedes-Benz to mark the centenary of the automobile, stands among the most refined of Warhol's late print series. Ten screenprints on Lenox Museum Board render historic Mercedes-Benz models in Warhol's characteristic flat colour and photographic silkscreen technique — his iconic commercial sensibility applied to the history of industrial design. Signed and numbered in editions of 100, with separate artist's proofs, the Cars series regularly achieves $25,000–$75,000 per impression and commands significant premiums when offered as complete portfolios.

Andy Warhol Late Paintings and Works on Paper

Warhol's production in the final decade of his life — broadly 1978 to 1987 — encompasses some of his most conceptually ambitious work. The Knives series (1981–82), Guns series (1981–82), and Crosses (1981–82) form a trilogy of loaded American objects rendered in the same neutral Pop vocabulary he had applied to Soup Cans twenty years earlier. The Boots and Dollar Bills paintings sit alongside late unique canvases from the Camouflage series (1986–87) and the haunting Last Supper paintings completed weeks before his death. Works from this period are systematically underrepresented in collector awareness relative to their importance to the broader catalogue and represent genuine long-term collecting opportunities.

Andy Warhol Self Portrait Prints For Sale

Andy Warhol self portrait prints are among the most sought-after works in his catalogue — a subject he returned to from 1966 to 1986. The most collected examples include:

  • Self Portrait F.S. II.7 (1966) — the iconic fist-to-chin composition in vivid Pop colourways
  • Self Portrait F.S. II.12–22 (1978) — nine large-format prints; auction results regularly $80,000–$250,000
  • Self Portrait with Fright Wig (1986) — produced a year before his death; widely regarded as his definitive late statement
  • Camouflage Self Portrait F.S. II.316 (1986) — the artist dissolved into his own imagery

Self portrait prices range from $18,000 for early unsigned screenprints to $400,000+ for the 1978 and 1986 signed works in excellent condition. Authentication requires reference to the Feldman & Schellmann catalogue raisonné and, where applicable, a former Andy Warhol Art Authentication Board certificate.
