Rosenthal Andy Warhol Campbell’s Soup Cylindrical Vase
October 12th, 2010 Posted in Andy Warhol
A well-known design adorns the most recent Andy Warhol collectors’ series: The Campbell’s soup tins. According to Warhol he was commissioned by an art dealer in 1961 to paint a picture of the thing that meant most to him. Using templates, Warhol then began producing images of coins and soup tins by the American company Campbell’s ¿ an endeavour which was to pay for his meal tickets for many years to come.
