This original 1989 exhibition poster features Andy Warhol’s celebrated portrait of Elizabeth Taylor, issued for a show organized by the Fondazione Antonio Mazzotta and held at Castel Mareccio in Bolzano, Italy. The image presents Taylor in Warhol’s characteristic pop style, with a close-up, simplified portrait that emphasizes her status as a Hollywood icon. Printed as an offset lithograph by the Comune di Genova on heavyweight paper, the poster has been professionally mounted on linen for stability and preservation.
The piece sits at the intersection of fine art and popular culture, reflecting Warhol’s ongoing interest in movie stars and mass media imagery. As an authentic period exhibition poster on linen, it offers both a strong decorative presence and a direct connection to Warhol’s late-20th-century exhibition history in Italy.
