Commanding and graphic, Andy Warhol’s Bighorn Ram (1983) reflects his fascination with wildlife, popular imagery, and the visual culture of his era. This 38 × 38-inch screenprint on Lenox Museum Board belongs to an edition of 150. Signed and numbered by Warhol, the work combines bold Pop Art sensibility with a striking natural subject, offering collectors a distinctive and well-documented example of his celebrated animal imagery.
Bighorn Ram belongs to Andy Warhol’s late animal imagery, created in 1986 for his Endangered Species project. The series first appeared in a 1983 portfolio of screenprints produced with the Ronald Feldman Gallery, highlighting animals threatened by human activity. There is no authentic street-graffiti version; Warhol’s animal portraits were made as studio screenprints, designed for controlled color, scale, and repetition.
For collectors, Bighorn Ram offers a compelling mix of recognizable Warhol style and environmental history. The animal works are sought after for their bold presence and cultural relevance, while edition, signature, condition, provenance, and color can shape market appeal.
Our curatorial view is that the ram carries unusual strength. Warhol transforms a wild animal into a graphic icon, making beauty and vulnerability impossible to separate. The work speaks to nature, survival, human impact, and the growing conservation movement of the period.
This work reflects Warhol’s mature practice, linking his fascination with celebrity and mass imagery to the natural world. Comparable works from Endangered Species, including Bald Eagle, Grizzly Bear, and Giant Panda, show the same bold Pop language. For collectors, Bighorn Ram offers a distinctive entry into one of Warhol’s most visually powerful late series.
