Marilyn Portrait, 2013
Screen print on paper with diamond dust in liquid gold and black
42 x 33 Inches
Edition
Edition of 50
This striking screen print depicts Marilyn Monroe's iconic visage rendered in a bold palette of liquid gold and black, elevated by the artist's signature diamond dust technique. The work transforms the legendary Hollywood star into a shimmering object of desire, where photographic representation meets material luxury. The diamond dust catches light across the surface, creating an ever-changing visual experience that shifts between flatness and dimension. At forty-two by thirty-three inches, the portrait commands attention while maintaining an intimate scale that invites closer inspection of its glittering surface. Russell Young's Marilyn portraits continue his exploration of fame, mortality, and American iconography through a contemporary lens. Building upon Warhol's legacy while establishing his own distinctive visual language, Young elevates pop imagery into the realm of precious objects. The addition of diamond dust transforms screen printing from a democratic medium into something collectible and rare, appealing to collectors who value both conceptual depth and material presence. This work exemplifies Young's ability to bridge street art aesthetics with fine art craftsmanship. Available for purchase — enquire for price and availability.
