Monogram (artwork)

Monogram is a Combine by American artist Robert Rauschenberg, made between 1955 and 1959. It consists of a stuffed Angora goat with its midsection passing through an automobile tire. Critic Jorg von Uthmann described it as Rauschenberg's most famous work in the Huffington Post. In 1965, Pontus Hultén purchased the artwork for the collection of the Moderna Museet in Stockholm.
