专家说明

This work will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné being prepared by the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation.

"Visible brushstrokes in a painting convey a sense of grand gesture. But, in my hands, the brushstroke becomes a depiction of a grand gesture. So the contradiction between what I'm portraying and how I am portraying it is sharp. The brushstroke became very important for my work"

(Roy Lichtenstein, A Review of My work since 1961, 1995).
