Other paintings of the same subject by Warhol show Elvis repeated a number of times, such as in the silkscreen paintingDouble Elvis, which reproduces the second image, almost as a shadow, owned by theMuseum of Modern Art.^[3]

A further version of the painting,Double Elvis (Ferus type), was auctioned on May 17, 2018, for US$37 million.^[4] Another larger version,Eight Elvises is a 1963silkscreen, was sold in 2008 byAnnibale Berlingieri for$100 million to a private buyer. The current owner and location of the painting, which has not been seen publicly since the 1960s, are unknown.^[5]

Other prominent artists have been inspired by Warhol's paintings of Elvis, such as British YBA artist,Gavin Turk, who appropriated the image and stance of Elvis in the Warhol series to produce his own versions of the work. Examples of Turk's silkscreen works on canvas are Yellow Diamond Elvis, 2005, and Pink Diamond Elvis, 2005.^[6][7][8]
