Annie Oakley 1986

This silkscreen print, created by Andy Warhol in 1986, depicts Annie Oakley, a famous sharpshooter and performer of the late 19th century. Warhol's signature style is evident in the bold, flat colors and the repetition of details, particularly in the depiction of Annie's clothing. This work is characteristic of Warhol's artistic output, which often celebrated icons of American popular culture, and is an example of his exploration of the relationship between celebrity and mass media. The work is a vibrant example of Pop Art, a movement that emerged in the 1950s and 1960s, and its bold colors and graphic style reflect this artistic movement.
