Andy Warhol – Goethe Poster, 1982 (framed) – In excellent condition – No reserve. A visually compelling and historically anchored Pop Art poster print by Andy Warhol, depicting Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. This is an original vintage poster print from 1982 (first production run by Insel Verlag), not a later reissue or reproduction. Printed by the renowned German publishing house Insel Verlag in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, this piece originates from the initial 1982 commercial print run, the same year it was first released to the art and literary market. The artwork itself is based on Warhol’s reinterpretation of the iconic 1787 portrait “Goethe in the Roman Campagna”, translating the 18th-century literary giant into Warhol’s signature Pop Art language of expressive contours and bold colour planes. The poster was professionally framed by Kunsthandlung & Einrahmungen E. Hoves, Krefeld, Germany, a respected 20th-century art dealer and framing atelier known for quality craftsmanship and period-appropriate presentation. The blue inner bies, clean wooden moulding, cardboard backing and hanging cord are all consistent with 1960–1980s German art-shop framing traditions, adding provenance value and aesthetic integrity to the piece.

His repeated focus on cultural protagonists and intellectual icons forms a major pillar of his oeuvre.
