Meaning & Analysis

Lichtenstein’s print resonates with these social issues as it showcases minimalist forms and sombre colours that depart starkly from the garish palette of his early works inspired by popular culture. The subject matter of the print is a scene of the setting sun. Series of diagonal lines are used in this print to compose multiple horizon layers. Right at the centre of the print lies the setting sun, represented simplistically as a large red dot enclosed by a thick contour.

Like other prints in the series, Illustration For De Nouveau Au Dessus De Denver was numbered and signed by Lichtenstein and Ginsberg in pencil. Compared with the buoyancy and brightness of the Landscapes, Moonscapes, Seascapes series, Lichtenstein’s late foray into landscape genre strikes with the aura of darkness and cultural anxiety.

  • 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.
