About this work
A 1969 screenprint on paper by Andy Warhol from an edition of 250. Hand signed and numbered on verso by the artist. The work is in excellent condition and includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
Provenance: Feldman & Schellman II.56. The Tomato Beef Noodle O’s soup can comes from the portfolio “Campbell’s Soup II.” With his Campbell’s Soup cans, Warhol tried to replicate the label found in the store. With the dynamic graphic imagery and simply color choices, you can see Warhol’s background as a graphic designer and illustrator. All of the ten prints found in the “Campbell’s Soup II” portfolio came from his 32 Campbell’s Soup paintings produced in 1962. The ten chosen for the second print portfolio feature more unusual flavors, rather than tomato and chicken noodle, and all features some kind of unique design element, unlike the ten prints found in the first portfolio of Campbell’s Soup cans
