Om verket

Andy Warhol made Halloween in 1949, a lithograph now in the National Gallery of Art, Washington. The holiday scene is printed in black on wove paper measuring 28.2 by 18.5 cm. Its lower margin bears the title in ink at the left and the name “andré” in graphite at the right. The sheet forms part of the Rosenwald Collection. It is not on view.
