Shipboard Girl - SOLD

Shipboard Girl is a mixed colored lithograph on paper realized by Roy Lichtenstein in 1965.

This beautiful print is hand-signed by Roy Lichtenstein (New York, 1923 - New York, 1997) on the lower right margin.

The artwork represents the typical blonde American beauty that we commonly found in mass-produced comic books and mass media. The artwork is named for the beautiful girl aboard a luxury liner ship. The limited color scheme of bold primary colors (red, yellow and black) and thick black lines allude to the mechanical production of commercial comic book imagery aimed at mass audiences.
