Kate Moss is a clear homage to Andy Warhol’s iconic Marilyn Monroe suite, both in its subject and its formal execution. Banksy combines the faces of Moss and Monroe, superimposing Monroe’s hair onto a grey-scale portrait of Moss, then staining it with vibrant colors. Warhol’s portraits of Monroe, like many of his other works, were both a glorification of fame and a satirical comment on it as a spectacle. Kate Moss has been described as one of the most recognizable faces of her time, appearing on over 300 magazine covers and featuring in Time’s list of the world’s 100 most influential people in 2007. She contributed to the history of fashion for 25 years, and her image became part of global popular culture.
