Near fine copy with a hint of sunning to the edges in a bright near fine price-clipped dust jacket with a 1” tear, with interior tape repair, to the bottom right corner near the flap fold. A comprehensive exploration of artist Andy Warhol’s religious-themed art work by art historian and curator, Jane Daggett Dillenberger. From the jacket flap: “In the two years before he died, however, Warhol made over one hundred paintings, drawings, and prints based on Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. The dramatic story of these works is told here for the first time.” In addition to the Last Supper works, the book offers more examples of Warhol’s religious art with terrific supportive text by Dillenberger.
