Andy Warhol The Children’s Book Illustrator

0

Before Andy Warhol was Andy Warhol he illustrated a version of the well-known children’s book, The Little Red Hen, which was published by Nelson Doubleday in 1958. The eight pages of drawings (shown above and below)–while not representative of how prolific he would become–offer an early glimpse to a time when Warhol was still struggling to find his identity as an artist. There’s not much to say about these illustrations besides they’re pretty ordinary, but it’s cool to see a side of him we otherwise wouldn’t. The rest after the break. [Via]
