About this work
This complete portfolio comprises six vibrant screen prints depicting clusters of grapes rendered in Warhol's signature Pop Art style. Each composition transforms the familiar fruit into a bold graphic statement through brilliant, non-naturalistic color combinations including electric purple, hot pink, vivid orange, and lime green set against contrasting backgrounds. The screen printing process on Strathmore Bristol paper achieves saturated, flat areas of color that emphasize the decorative and commercial qualities of the subject matter, reflecting Warhol's fascination with everyday objects and consumer culture. Created during Warhol's mature period, this Grapes series exemplifies his continued exploration of still life subjects through the lens of commercial advertising aesthetics. The portfolio demonstrates Warhol's masterful command of screen printing and his ability to elevate mundane subjects into iconic imagery. As a complete set, these works represent an exceptional opportunity for collectors to acquire a cohesive example of Warhol's late seventies output, showcasing his enduring influence on contemporary printmaking and Pop Art.

Guy Hepner has completed 478 Warhol transactions totalling over $51 million across 292 collectors, and our experience confirms that sophisticated buyers increasingly seek portfolios with demonstrated auction activity but without the saturation that characterises Flowers or Marilyn editions.","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph","content":[{"text":"Auction records reveal compelling price architecture across the series. At the highest documented threshold, Grapes F.S. II.193 realised an extraordinary $105,445,000 in November 2013—a figure that demands contextualisation against Warhol's broader market, where Shot Sage Blue Marilyn achieved $195,040,000 at Christie's in May 2022, establishing the benchmark for twentieth-century works at auction. More recently, Grapes F.S. II.190 brought $304,800 in October 2023, while the complete portfolio (F.S. II.190-195) matched that result in the same sale period. Earlier market activity shows GBP 11,155 for a complete portfolio in November 2007 and GBP 5,400 for II.190 individually that same month—evidence of substantial appreciation over the intervening sixteen years.","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph","content":[{"text":"This pricing trajectory positions Grapes as a portfolio with proven auction liquidity and meaningful value growth, offering entry points that differ substantially from the artist's most contested series while maintaining the institutional recognition that underpins long-term collection value.","type":"text"}]},{"type":"horizontalRule"},{"type":"heading","attrs":{"level":2},"content":[{"text":"Technical & Historical Context","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph","content":[{"text":"Created in 1979 and published by Andy Warhol Enterprises, New York, the Grapes portfolio comprises six screenprints on Strathmore Bristol paper, each measuring 40 × 30 inches. The series belongs to Warhol's late-career exploration of natural subjects—a thematic departure that followed his monumental commissioned portrait work and preceded the Retrospective and Myths portfolios of the early 1980s.","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph","content":[{"text":"Warhol's choice of grapes carries deliberate art-historical resonance. Still life subjects loaded with symbolic weight—abundance, mortality, the fleeting nature of pleasure—recur throughout Western painting from Dutch Golden Age masters forward. By rendering this classical motif through his signature screenprint process, Warhol collapsed the distance between high art tradition and mechanical reproduction, extending the conceptual project that defined his entire practice.","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph","content":[{"text":"The suite's colour variations across all six prints demonstrate Warhol's systematic approach to image repetition with chromatic difference—each impression transforms identical compositional structure through shifts in palette that alter mood, visual temperature, and decorative application entirely.","type":"text"}]},{"type":"horizontalRule"},{"type":"heading","attrs":{"level":2},"content":[{"text":"Individual Works & Collector Preferences","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph","content":[{"text":"The complete portfolio (F.S.

II.193 has generated the most dramatic market results, though serious collectors should evaluate each variant's colour composition against their existing holdings. The warmer iterations complement collections weighted toward Warhol's portrait work, while cooler palettes create productive dialogue with his Flowers series or the Space Fruit portfolio that followed in 1979.","type":"text"}]},{"type":"paragraph","content":[{"text":"From our transactional experience, European collectors frequently gravitate toward the complete portfolio as a considered entry into Warhol's still life material, while American buyers often acquire individual impressions to fill specific gaps in colour-focused collections.

Examine sheets carefully for tonal shifts along edges that indicate light exposure, surface abrasions within the screenprinted areas, and any evidence of foxing or moisture damage in the paper margins.

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.
