What is the title of Andy Warhol’s 1962 painting made from 32 Campbell’s Soup can images?

Andy Warhol’s 1962 painting made from 32 Campbell’s Soup can images is titled Campbell’s Soup Cans. The work consists of 32 canvases, each depicting a different Campbell’s soup variety available at the time.

Warhol exhibited the series at the Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles in July 1962. Rather than presenting one large narrative scene, he arranged individual canvases in a grocery-like sequence, making repetition and ordinary packaging part of the viewing experience.

The series became a landmark of American Pop art because it treated a mass-produced supermarket product as a worthy subject for a gallery. Its precise, commercial-looking imagery also reflected Warhol’s earlier career as a successful commercial illustrator.

Campbell’s Soup Cans is sometimes called 32 Campbell’s Soup Cans, but the standard title is Campbell’s Soup Cans. It should also be distinguished from later individual soup-can paintings and prints.
