Signed lower to the center. Framed. Stamped, Roy Lichtensten Copyright 1973 by Roy Lichtensten Printed at Styria Studio, on the backside. Roy Fox Lichtenstein was an American pop artist. During the 1960s, along with Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, and James Rosenquist, he became a leading figure in the new art movement. His work defined the premise of pop art through parody. Inspired by the comic strip, Lichtenstein produced precise compositions that documented while they parodied, often in a tongue in cheek manner. His work was influenced by popular advertising and the comic book style. Modern and Contemporary American Pop Art, and Collectibles. One of a kind artwork.
