Specialist note

Roy Lichtenstein produced the Landscape Series in 1984-85. The artist used a combination of “cartoon” and “real” brushstrokes to compose the landscapes. The brushstrokes are a Pop homage to the preceding gestural painting of the New York School. At the same time, Lichtenstein reference earlier artists, such as Van Gogh, in works such as The Sower (lot 57).
