Chicken 'N Dumplings
Any Warhol Campbell Soup Can Fine Art, Campbell's Soup Can (Chicken 'N Dumplings)
is an iconic pop art screenprint created by Andy Warhol in 1969 as part of his Campbell's Soup II portfolio. The artwork is a rendition of a Campbell's soup can, a subject Warhol is well-known for, and it features a unique design. In place of the standard gold seal, the print depicts two Queen's Guard soldiers holding a banner that reads "Stout Hearted Soup," a series of robust soups introduced by Campbell's in the 1960s.
The Campbell's Soup II series is composed of ten different screenprints, each depicting a distinct soup flavor. Warhol created this portfolio using the silkscreen technique, which he embraced for its ability to produce consistent, repeatable images, mimicking mass production. The artwork is celebrated for elevating a mundane, everyday consumer product to the status of fine art, a central theme of the Pop Art movement.
