    "This approach echoes Warhol's treatment of other iconic figures like Marilyn Monroe and Jackie Kennedy, positioning Andersen within the pantheon of cultural celebrities."

    Andy Warhol's Hans Christian Andersen print is part of a portfolio of four works, featuring the eponymous author alongside three of his paper cutout figurines. Created later in Warhol's career, this series continues his exploration of how figures from various realms—literary, historical, or commercial—can be recast as pop culture icons.

    In this particular print, Warhol presents a stylised portrait of Andersen, rendered in his signature style. Bold blue hues and simplified orange lines transform the 19th-century author into a contemporary pop icon. The vibrant colours, a hallmark of Warhol's work, infuse Andersen's image with a sense of modernity and energy. This approach echoes Warhol's treatment of other iconic figures like Marilyn Monroe and Jackie Kennedy, positioning Andersen within the pantheon of cultural celebrities.
