Andy Warhol (1923 – 1987) loved cats, creating numerous paintings of them until he began his Pop Art series of soup cans, Coke bottles and Marilyn Monroe silkscreens. As a cat owner, he published a book of 25 cat portraits in which all but one of the felines were named Sam. The artworks were based on the images of famed cat photographer Walter Chandoha, rather than Warhol’s own felines.
Andy Warhol (1923 – 1987), one of the 20th century’s most creative, prolific and influential artists, defined a decade and a culture with his groundbreaking Pop Art. Initially a popular Manhattan commercial artist, Warhol achieved fame with his multiple images of soup cans, soda bottles, dollar bills and celebrities, which revealed the beauty within mass culture. Innovator of silkscreening, Warhol’s talents also encompassed filmmaking, music production, commercial illustration, writing and magazine publishing.
This art print displays sharp, vivid images with a high degree of color accuracy. A member of the versatile family of art prints, this high-quality reproduction represents the best of both worlds: quality and affordability. Art prints are created on paper similar to that of a postcard or greeting card using an offset lithography press.
