Five Facts About Andy Warhol Alexander the Great
Alexander the Great is a 1982 portfolio of two screenprints, issued in an edition of 25, printed by Rupert Jasen Smith on Lenox Museum Board.
It was commissioned by art dealer Alexander Iolas, who had a long history of working with major twentieth-century artists.
The images are based on a Roman-era bronze head depicting Alexander the Great.
The commission was timed to coincide with 'The Search for Alexander,' a major exhibition of ancient Greek art and artefacts.
It is one of the rare instances in which Warhol based a portrait on a historical figure from antiquity rather than a contemporary celebrity.
