Double Deathshead is part of the Screenportfolio. The Chapmans provided the printer with a life-size ink drawing of the skulls, and the screenprint was made from this. The print was issued with a pair of eyes on springs – ‘Droopy Eyes’ – which were fixed to the glazed image once it had been framed, covering the central pair of eyes. Dinos explained ‘The eyes deflate any sense of menace, the whole image deflates itself’.
