Andy Warhol portraits

Oft imitated, but never bettered, Andy Warhol was one of the 20th Century's most innovative artists. Although he was an all-round cultural provocateur, we've always admired his simple, but colourful, portraits. What better excuse, then, to have a peek at some of his most iconic pieces, along with some never-before-seen images.
