The artwork titled “Cagney” was created by the renowned artist Andy Warhol in 1964. This piece is a part of the Pop Art movement and falls under the genre of portraiture.
In this black-and-white portrait, Warhol employs his signature techniques to capture a tense, dramatic moment. The central figure is depicted in a suit, seemingly engaged in an intense and confrontational scene. The use of stark contrasts and the fragmented, almost distressed visual effect gives the artwork a dynamic and somewhat cinematic quality. The overlapping images and stark shading contribute to a sense of movement and depth, evocative of Warhol’s innovative style in merging commercial and fine arts.
