Eastpak: A rucksack for art connoisseurs
Have you always wanted to own a work of art by Andy Warhol? We don't have any original screen prints by the artist, but we do have a rucksack with his famous "Fragile" print.
Careful, fragile: Warhol's "Fragile" screen print from 1962 is not the only thing that comes to mind, but also the artist himself. The petite American lived Pop Art like no other and made a name for himself in the 60s and 70s with a portrait of Marilyn Monroe and his 32 Campbell's soup cans, among other things.
The Eastpak brand is now paying tribute to his life's work with a limited edition backpack. Warhol is said to have been a fan of Eastpak bags himself, as this picture of him shows. The good news is that the bag manufacturer's collector's items are absolutely affordable. If you have the necessary change, you can bid for the original Fragile screen print at Christie's auction house. The estimated value of the artwork is between 1.8 and 2.2 million dollars.

The reinterpretation of the "Padded Pak'r" is printed with Warhol's repeating Fragile print. The collector's item has an integrated inner compartment for a 13'' notebook plus a pocket on the front. The back section is also padded so that you can easily carry the Padded Pak'r all day long. This is exciting for me when I'm travelling and I'm pushing my permitted eight kilograms of hand luggage to the max. [[product:10244193]]
