Figures , from Surrealist Series (C. 157), 1978
Lithograph in colors on Arches 88 paper
31 x 21 in 78.7 x 53.3 cm
Roy Lichtenstein's "Figures" from his Surrealist Series exemplifies the artist's distinctive approach to appropriating and reinterpreting avant-garde movements. This vibrant lithograph presents abstracted figural forms rendered in Lichtenstein's signature bold outlines and flat planes of primary color. The work demonstrates his characteristic tension between commercial printing techniques and fine art tradition, transforming surrealist imagery into graphic compositions of striking visual immediacy. Created in 1978, this piece reflects Lichtenstein's mature engagement with modernist legacies, translating gestural abstraction into controlled, deliberate mark-making. The crisp registration and luminous color palette showcase the technical mastery of the lithographic medium, while the composition invites multiple interpretations of the ambiguous figural elements. This museum-quality work represents a pivotal moment in Lichtenstein's career, merging conceptual sophistication with accessible visual language. An exceptional addition to serious collections focusing on twentieth-century printmaking and Pop Art innovation. Available for purchase — enquire for price and availability.

Roy Lichtenstein (1923–1997) is the defining figure of American Pop Art and one of the most actively traded artists on the post-war and contemporary market. His bold graphic language — Ben-Day dots, black outlines, primary palettes drawn from comic books and advertising — is among the most instantly recognisable in twentieth-century art. Born in New York City, he was exhibited by Leo Castelli Gallery from 1962 and worked until his death in September 1997, producing one of the most extensively documented print catalogues of any artist of his generation.
