Product description

Here is an exciting vintage carpet – a mid-twentieth century production featuring a composition designed by the inimitable Andy Warhol. A Swedish rug, this compelling work is characterized by an immediately recognizable design: one of Andy Warhol’s famous portraits of Marilyn Monroe. One of the most important and unique artists of the twentieth century, Warhol is celebrated for his innovative approach for art. For Warhol, the subjects of his work were always things that he liked – things that he found emotionally and aesthetically appealing, irrespective of what they were. Famously painting Campbell’s soup cans as well as an array of celebrities and pop culture icons, Warhol vaulted the commercial to the refined, asking many important questions about the nature of art along the way. In this delightful carpet, one of Warhol’s most recognizable depictions of Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe is set against a field of red in a delightful pop art style of high contrast. The colors are vivid, adding dimension to a familiar and intriguing portraiture. A truly exciting work, this Andy Warhol Marilyn Monroe rug is an excellent example of the style of a true giant of the art world.
