ROY LICHTENSTEIN "Moonscape", Silkscreen on blue moire Rowlux paper, 1965 ( from 11 Pop Artists Portfolio I )
Description
ROY LICHTENSTEIN, American, 1927-1987, MOONSCAPE, 1965
Signed, Numbered & Dated
This dazzling Roy Lichtenstein hand signed and numbered mixed media silkscreen is the most desirable (and expensive) work from the legendary 1960s portfolio 11 Pop Artists I, which also featured works by Andy Warhol, Mel Ramos, James Rosenquist and others. It was originally published in an edition of 200, though it's becoming increasingly scarce as so many are now in the permanent collections of major museums, institutions and public collections worldwide. Lichtenstein's "Moonscape" was created in the mid Sixties, and by the end of the decade, the first man would land on the moon!
