Amazing...

I've always been quite fascinated by Andy Warhol...such an innovator in so many ways. The paintings of the Campbell's soup cans will always tickle my fancy.

"One of Andy Warhol's iconic Marilyn Monroe portraits could become the most expensive 20th-century artwork ever to go under the hammer, with auctioneer Christie's expecting bids "in the region of" $200 million. The 40-square-inch "Shot Sage Blue Marilyn," one of dozens of images the artist made of Monroe in the 1960s, will go on sale in New York this May, the auction house announced Monday. Warhol's colorful reproductions of the Hollywood star's portrait -- originally a publicity still from her 1953 movie "Niagara" -- are among his most recognizable works, alongside his signature paintings of Campbell's soup cans."
