Andy Warhols' iconic Marilyn Monroe screen print.
The Art Gallery of Ontario says it has received a significant gift of more than 450 pieces of art, including works by pop titans Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and David Hockney.
The trove of modern and contemporary works comes from the family of late Toronto art patrons Carol and Morton Rapp.
It consists largely of prints, drawings and photographs from the late 1960s and 1970s, as well as throughout the early decades of the 21st century.
Gallery CEO and director Stephan Jost says highlights include 13 screen prints by Warhol, among them four portraits of Marilyn Monroe.
Three works on paper by Lichtenstein include a 1965 silkscreen in his distinct, comic-book-inspired style.
