Together with the succession of pictures of Marilyn Monroe, Campbell’s soup can is his icon and the essence of Pop Art. The series was created in 1968, and the portfolio consists of ten works signed by the artist, all of them registered.

In 1961 Warhol developed his interest in the theme of Campbell’s soup cans, initially painted on canvas, and later he produced two series of silk-screen prints.
