Andy Warhol - 1986 'African Elephant' limited edition lithograph print from his 1983 'Endangered Species' portfolio.

Warhol's 'Endangered Species' series is a result of a conversation he had with art dealer couple, Ronald and Frayda Feldman. Their environmental concerns drew on Warhol's lifelong fascination with insects and animals, prompting him to shift momentarily from his usual abstract pop art to something more conceptually grounded. The result of his 'Endangered Species' portfolio inspired Warhol to donate his 15-acre property in Long Island, New York, to the Nature Preserve. Today, the property has been re-titled as the Andy Warhol Preserve.
