About Hammer and Sickle (Special Edition)

“Hammer and Sickle (Special Edition)” is an abstract screenprint artwork created in 1977 by the renowned artist Andy Warhol. It is part of the Pop Art movement and was produced in the United States.

The artwork features a minimalist design, dominated by geometric shapes and muted colors. A large, dark, roughly hexagonal form that represents the hammer is positioned diagonally from the lower left to the upper right, creating a sense of dynamic motion. Adjacent to it is a similarly dark, slender shape that intersects with the hammer, evoking the image of a sickle. The background is filled with a large, irregularly shaped brown form contrasted against a blank, white backdrop, giving a stark and compelling visual impact.
