Meaning & Analysis
Mick Jagger (F. & S. II.141) depicts the rockstar and Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger. When Bianca and Mick Jagger stayed with Warhol at his Montauk home in 1975, he snapped the polaroid photo used in this screen print. Jagger poses shirtless for the photo. For this edition of 250, Warhol retained only the shading around Jagger’s lips and eyebrows, preferring to draw on his eyes and nose. In this particular image, Warhol has highlighted the singer’s lips in pink, drawing attention to Jagger’s most famous feature and making it unique in the larger series Mick Jagger.
Warhol produced nine other images of Jagger to create a portfolio of ten in 1975. The artist heavily employed collage and overdrawing in this series, marking a transition in style from his earlier screen prints featuring Marilyn or Jackie Kennedy. Jagger signed the prints in addition to Warhol to increase their value, indicating both stars’ commercial savvy. The pair collaborated on the Rolling Stones’ 1971 studio album Sticky Fingers and remained friends until Warhol’s death in 1987.
