• David LaChapelle made a name for himself with his photographic portraits of American celebrities like Madonna, Tupac Shakur, Eminem, Lil' Kim, Kanye West, Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj and Lizzo.
• In 1980, LaChapelle worked for Andy Warhol's "Interview Magazine" for a while before he began his own artistic work by transferring the ideas and aesthetics of 1960s pop art into 21st century popular culture.
• The woman depicted here, Amanda Lepore, has been one of the artist's favorite models since the 1980s. She works as a model, singer and author and lives openly as a trans woman.
• The work is based on Andy Warhol's famous "Marilyn" series, but adds a new glamorous and dimension to the well-known portrait and thus also to the traditional genre of portrait photography.
• LaChapelle's works are part of many museum collections like the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the National Portrait Gallery and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Musée d'Orsay in Paris and the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome
