Who doesn't know the Danish author of fairy tales Hans Christian Andersen. Andy Warhol was inspired by Andersen and decided to create a series dedicated to the author and his unique characters. Warhol's bright blue and pink use of color makes the character stand out from the gray and black background.
Three of the four works from the HC Andersen suite feature a paper cutout style based on characters from Andersen's fairy tales. Only 1 work from the suite is a portrait of the author himself.
