Content: Minnelli first appeared on screen as a toddler. Child of Judy Garland and Vincente Minnelli, Liza was born into stardom. Warhol was fascinated by Minnelli’s features. He found a strong, ionic face with bold features. Her large dark eyes and red lips stood out on the print even before it was transferred to silkscreen. Warhol appreciated the simple lines and religious overtones of Minnelli’s sad face. This piece was portraying this alluring celebrity while also suggesting her private burdens.
