Warhol/Celebrity Identification?, by amethystcape on Jun 8, 2011 4:44:08 GMT 1, Apologies if this isn't the right place to post this, but I've been searching all day trying to figure out who this celebrity is. I'm only posting here as a last resort.
I was watching a video on Mark Rothko and they ended up mentioning Warhol for a bit, giving a short slideshow of some of his more famous work.
Then this popped up.
Who is this a picture of? I've searched all over and cant find a thing about it.
In fact, finding much info at all about what kinds of celebrity pictures he's done besides Liz Taylor, Elvis, Monroe, and the usual suspects is a difficult task. Is there some kind of online Warhol database that would hold this type of information?
