Meaning & Analysis

The resulting print presents an intricate composition, mirroring the layout of other works from the same series, such as American Indian Theme II and American Indian Theme VI. Reflecting the main characteristics of Lichtenstein’s infamous pop oeuvre, the colour scheme used here is the usual bright yellow, deep maroon and cobalt blue. A black and white faux wood imprinted structure is situated in the centre. The shape is surrounded by forms indicative of indigenous tools, like a stone knife for instance, and embellishments comparable to textile weavings attributed to Native Americans.

Lichtenstein proposes his own version of a still life here. In the end, the print relies as much on the artist’s own signature style, as it does on the familiar imagery of American Indian heritage he appropriates.

  • Roy Lichtenstein, born in New York, 1923, is a seminal figure in the Pop Art movement, renowned for his comic book and advertisement-inspired artworks. His transformative journey from classical painter to Pop Art pioneer began with his iconic piece, Look Mickey, marking the fusion of painting with pop culture. Lichtenstein’s works, including Whaam!, Drowning Girl, and Crying Girl, blend parody and satire, challenging the boundaries between popular culture and ‘high art’. With over 5,000 pieces to his name, Lichtenstein’s enduring influence resonates in contemporary art, his works celebrated in prestigious institutions worldwide.
