Note: Campbell’s Soup Can (Tomato) 4 by Andy Warhol and his portfolios depicting Campbell’s Soup cans are arguably his most iconic and widely recognised series of artwork. In this collection, Warhol takes the ever-present American pantry staple and transforms it into high art. Warhol was originally a commercial graphic artist. He found the imagery of the Campbell’s soup label a powerful visual tool since the design had remained successfully unchanged for decades. This particular print is unique, as it is printed on a grocery bag and is commonly referred to as Campbell’s Soup Shopping Bag. This bag was created in 1964 for the American Supermarket Exhibition at the Bianchini Gallery.
