    As art historian Marco Livingstone has stressed, Pop Art was never a circumscribed movement with membership and manifestos. Rather, it was a sensibility emergent in the 1950s and rampant in the 1960s. Andy Warhol (who began his career as a fashion illustrator) had been painting Campbell's soup cans since 1962. Such advertising icons, along with cartoons and billboards, yielded a synthesis of word and image, of art and the everyday. Fashion quickly embraced the spirit of Pop, playing an important role in its dissemination. The paper dresses of 1966 - 67 were throwaways, open to advertising and the commercial now selling for as much as $ 13,000.00 and in over 25 museum collections.  The original soup can PAINTINGS sold for 0 in 1962 and one recently sold at auction for over 11 Million dollars at auction.
    In the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art NYC.
