Roy Lichtenstein Repeated Design, 1969, C.90 is a geometric abstract design that captures the artist's move away from figurative work to more abstract work. The color palette of yellow, black, and white, is in line with his favoritism of the primary colors, and allows the focus to shift towards his use of shape and line. The design has an Art Deco feel to it, with sharp angles and the element of repetition. Lichtenstein continues to use the Ben Day dots to portray shadowing and add texture to the otherwise fairly simple design. After 1965, Lichtenstein began moving away from the comic book influenced work that he gained notoriety for and began experimenting with different subjects and styles.
