Roy Lichtenstein Mirror, 1990 features a stylized rendering of a reflective glass or mirror. The small scale of the image lends this work an intimate and personal effect. Thick black lines define the inner and outer edges of the yellow frame, creating the signature cartooned style of Lichtenstein’s work. Black lines of varying thickness fill the negative space inside the border of the work and represent reflective glimmers of light playing upon the surface of a mirror. The compositional simplicity of Roy Lichtenstein Mirror, 1990 showcases the bold, iconic style of the artist through the representation of a commonplace object.
