he Skulls complete portfolio is a set of 4 screenprints by Andy Warhol. Skulls is a mesmerizing journey into the human condition, confronting us with the inescapable reality of mortality. Published in 1976, this series is a departure from Warhol’s earlier works, which often focused on celebrity and consumer culture.

The Skulls portfolio is based on object photographs taken by Andy Warhol’s assistant, Ronnie Cutrone. Using intricate play of light and shadow, Warhol creates a tension that beckons viewers into a contemplation of their own mortality. The portfolio consists of four prints, each featuring different color combinations that breathe life into the age-old theme of death. The vibrant hues of red, yellow, blue, and purple stand in stark contrast to the macabre subject matter, creating a thought-provoking juxtaposition.
