Andy Warhol’s monumental 1985 screen print Queen Beatrix Of The Netherlands Royal Edition (F. & S.II.341) presents a portrait of the Dutch monarch adorned with her tiara. Warhol has applied his signature style to an official portrait of Beatrix for this signed print. Heightened red tones in the monarchs hair and dress and a flat yellow background are embellished with the addition of diamond dust for this Royal Edition image. Warhol produced 30 prints for this edition as part of the larger series, Reigning Queens.
Reigning Queens features four female monarchs who reigned at the time of creation of the series. In addition to Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom,Queen Ntombi Twala of Swaziland, and Queen Margrethe of Denmark. Queen Beatrix ascended to the throne in 1980, five years before Warhol’s series.
