• Andy Warhol, the icon of Pop Art, is a brilliant draftsman with an unerring and at times ornamental stroke.
• The screen print of the same name was made after this drawing (Feldmann/Schellmann IIIC.71).
• The present work was inspired by the photograph “Hermann Hesse smoking in the library, 1935”.
• In 2020/21, Tate Modern, London, and Museum Ludwig, Cologne, dedicated the special exhibition “Andy Warhol Now” to Warhol's artistic contribution to more social diversity.
