Richard Weisman 1985

Andy Warhol's 1985 silkscreen print, "Richard Weisman," depicts a close-up portrait of a man wearing a suit, his expression neutral, his eyes looking directly at the viewer. Warhol, a prominent figure in the Pop Art movement, frequently used silkscreen printing, a technique that gave his works a distinct mechanical aesthetic, and a characteristically flat, graphic style. The artwork's vibrant, flat colors and simplified form are characteristic of Warhol’s celebrated style.
