Damien Hirst (British, b. 1965) created a screen-print series inspired by his 2007 sculpture For the Love of God, a platinum cast of an 18th-century human skull encrusted with 8,601 diamonds, including the prominent Skull Star Diamond on the forehead. The prints distill the sculpture’s themes of mortality, luxury, and permanence into a two-dimensional form, preserving its symbolic fusion of memento mori and contemporary excess.
