The theme of death occurred in Warhol’s compositions from the early 1960s onward, appearing in both metaphorical and explicit images. 

While the Death and Disaster series and the Skull paintings provide blunt reminders of death’s constant presence in life, Warhol also explored the theme allegorically through works depicting the setting sun and shadows, both offering sublime examples of the transition from light to dark. Always drawn to high-contrast imagery, Warhol was also interested in the illusory quality of shadows and their enigmatic, contemplative, and spiritual dimensions.
