LONDON — An Andy Warhol painting of Elvis Presley — the artist’s only full-length portrait — is for sale with an estimated price tag of $30 million.
“Double Elvis (Ferus Type)” depicts the hip-swiveling musician holding a revolver, as he appeared in the 1960 Western “Flaming Star.”
The 1963 black-on-silver portrait is being auctioned by Christie’s in New York on May 17, alongside Warhol’s “Most Wanted Men No. 11, John Joseph H., Jr.”
