Andy Warhol

Hand with Flowers and Carnation/Diptychon

1961

A delicate yet striking work by Andy Warhol, this piece combines pen and oil on paper to depict a hand gracefully holding flowers and a carnation in a diptych format. The composition reflects Warhol's early illustrative style, blending fine linear detail with soft washes of color characteristic of his pre-Pop Art commercial work. The diptych structure adds a sense of symmetry and repetition, themes that would later become central to his iconic artistic practice.
