Campbell's Soup Cans Coloring Page

In 1962 Andy Warhol painted 32 soup cans, one for every flavour Campbell's sold at the time. When they were first shown at a gallery in Los Angeles, they sat in a row along a narrow shelf, a bit like groceries in a store.

Some people laughed at the idea that a soup can could be art. Warhol said he'd eaten Campbell's soup for lunch almost every day for years, so why not paint it? The cans became one of the best-known pieces of Pop Art, a style that turns everyday things like soup, comic strips and movie stars into art. All 32 now belong to the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
