Description
This lot consists of a framed acrylic on canvas done in the Pop Art style of Andy Warhol (American, 1928-1987). Hand inscription in ink at bottom. This modern art image depicts Judy Garland as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz (1939). A charming, minimalist addition to any collector's gallery. This unframed piece measures approximately 22.5" x 18.25".
Reverse side of piece features two stamps and an affixed paper label.
Andy Warhol (American, 1928-1987) was a leader of contemporary art, which solidified the way that we now visualize the mid-century American era, its faces, and its mass culture. Warhol was a producer, director, printmaker, and illustrator who hailed from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. From his beginnings in the commercial art world, Warhol held a firm grasp of popular image and advertising power. By the time of his death in 1987, Warhol's name would become synonymous with the Banana Factory, Studio 54, Campbell's Tomato Soup, and, most succinctly, Pop Art.
