Roy Lichtenstein — The River, from Landscapes Series
Roy Lichtenstein

The River, from Landscapes Series

Created in 1996, Roy Lichtenstein's *The River* is a vibrant print that exemplifies his signature Pop Art style, combining lithograph, woodcut, and screenprint techniques to depict a stylized natural landscape. The work employs his iconic Ben-Day dots, bold outlines, and flat areas of saturated color to transform the organic forms of a river and its surroundings into a graphic, almost cartoon-like composition. Printed on Arches 88 paper with full margins, this piece is part of Lichtenstein's *Landscapes Series*, in which he playfully reimagines the conventions of traditional landscape art through a distinctly modern, commercial aesthetic.

Medium
Lithograph, woodcut and screenprint in colors, on Arches 88 paper, with full margins.
