JACQUELINE KENNEDY III 15
Jacqueline Kennedy III print features four different images of Jacqueline Kennedy surrounding the death of her husband, President John F. Kennedy. These images also came from the December 6, 1963 issue of Life magazine, by the photographer Fred Ward. The same eleven artists were featured in each of the different versions of the 11 Pop Artists portfolio. In this print, Warhol still uses the stock images from the magazine, with simple black ink, however it is printed on blue paper. The images chosen depict Jackie in a variety of emotions, all of which the American public most likely shared during this time.
