Forgotten Warhol Self-Portrait Could Bring $1 Million at Auction

If ever there was an incentive to finally clean out your closet, it’s Cathy Naso—the former part-time receptionist at Andy Warhol’s Factory recently found a self-portrait of the famed pop artist in a forgotten closet after 40 years. Sotheby’s will auction off the print that Warhol inscribed to Naso in 1967, two years after she began working at the Factory.
