Drawing on his initial start as a commercial illustrator, the focus on commonplace advertisements encapsulates his interest in commercialism and consumerism. The Ads portfolio pulls from globally recognized brands associated with a wide range of products and elevates these elements of ordinary life to the status of high art. These advertisements were powerful symbols, and Andy Warhol’s Ads portfolio is a peek into the media landscape of the 1980s. Andy Warhol's Mobilgas 1985 is a representation of the Mobil gas station sign that would have been seen throughout the United States. A slice of Americana, the image consists of a shield decorated with the profile of a Pegasus leaping over the company’s name, “Mobilgas.” Warhol’s Mobil stays somewhat true to the sign’s original color, the Pegasus and the wording retaining their primary red and blue hues, though the white sign has been given a light blue tinge. The addition of bright yellow linework to delineate the Pegasus and outline the wording is especially striking, giving Warhol’s Mobil a classic Pop Art feel. This is is an arresting work of art from Andy Warhol’s Ads portfolio, one of the most renowned of his series.
