Lot Note(s): Hand-signed by Warhol in brown marker underneath the work. Drawn on found, slightly irregularly shaped, wove tan and black paper. Overall good condition - some wrinkling to the paper upper left corner; paper partially folded and creased, lower center, but beneath and well away from the signature; some creasing to lower right and left corners.
Comment(s): Created as a playful gift to the famous German furniture designer, publisher, and gallerist Jorg Schellmann. The word "mobel" is German for furniture, hence Warhol has created a "Furniture Soup" Can. Warhol gave it to Fred Hughes, his business manager, to in turn gift it to Schellmann. This didn’t happen and it was purchased from Hughes by a major Swedish art dealer shortly before Hughes' death in 2001, from whom it was purchased by our consignor. [30595-3-1600-NA]
