    Andy Warhol Lillian Carter (F & S II.153)

    Lillian Carter (1977) is a vibrant screenprint by Andy Warhol portraying Lillian Carter, nurse and mother of U.S. President Jimmy Carter. Created during the period of Warhol’s commissioned portraits for Carter’s presidential campaign, the work highlights the personal rapport the artist often developed with his sitters. Rather than focusing solely on political authority, Warhol turns his attention to a maternal figure, expanding the narrative of public image into the realm of family, intimacy, and personality within the broader political sphere.

  • About Andy Warhol Lillian Carter

    This portrait is among Warhol’s most colourful collage-style compositions of the late 1970s. Fragmenting Lillian Carter’s features into bold, layered planes, Warhol used Colour Aid sheets, brightly hued artist papers, to construct vivid blocks of colour across the surface. The result is a dynamic interplay between photographic source and graphic abstraction. On Lillian’s chest, a campaign badge bearing her son’s likeness subtly references his political ascent, situating the portrait within the wider Jimmy Carter series. Despite her modest background, Warhol’s decision to depict Lillian underscores the warmth and familiarity he could cultivate, even in commissioned works. As with his portrayals of figures such as Mao and Lenin, Warhol remains attentive to how identity, power, and media imagery intersect; though here, filtered through a more personal lens.
