Nine equally square and the same pictures of Merilyn Monroe are showed as if it would be a collage. One picture is copied into nine, but all nine are different because of contrasting colors. In all the pictures Merilyn portrait has different color background, hair, lips and teeth, skin tone, eye shadow and the natural shadows of original picture such as shadows in hair, cheekbone line, neck. Chosen colors are really bright and it seems as if Warhol was trying to choose the most not suitable and contrasting colors for all nine portraits.
