Tobacco Rhoda, from 11 Pop Artists, Volume II
A voluptuous nude woman reclines seductively atop an oversized pack of tobacco cigarettes, rendered in Ramos's signature style of bold, vivid colors and smooth, idealized forms. This work exemplifies the Pop Art movement's playful yet pointed commentary on consumer culture and advertising, merging the iconography of commercial packaging with the conventions of the pin-up. Printed as part of the prestigious *11 Pop Artists, Volume II* portfolio, this screenprint showcases Ramos's masterful use of flat, graphic color and crisp lines characteristic of the screenprint medium.
