Offset lithograph on paper with hand coloring

11 x 17 1/8 in27.9 x 43.5 cm

This offset lithograph presents one of the whimsical dessert illustrations from Warhol's collaborative cookbook with socialite Suzie Frankfurt. The image features hand-colored details applied over the lithographic base, showcasing Warhol's characteristic blotted line technique. The composition depicts an elaborate marzipan cake dedicated to gossip columnist Dorothy Killgallen, rendered in Warhol's distinctive graphic style that bridges commercial illustration and fine art. The work measures eleven by seventeen inches, an intimate scale that reflects its origin as part of a limited edition artist's book. Wild Raspberries represents a crucial transitional moment in Warhol's career, created just before his breakthrough Pop Art works of the early 1960s. These pieces demonstrate his early fascination with celebrity culture, consumerism, and the elevation of everyday subjects to fine art status. The cookbook series remains highly collectible, offering insight into Warhol's artistic evolution while maintaining the playful irreverence that would define his later practice.
