Still Life with Portrait presents a meticulously balanced composition. This lithograph and screenprint with debossing on BFK Rives paper is from an edition of 100 and is signed, dated, and numbered by the artist. The print features a framed portrait of a woman on the right side, suggesting a domestic setting. Unlike the comic-book-style women in Lichtenstein’s other works, this headshot implies a family photograph with its formal presentation. The woman’s pearls, styled hair, and refined demeanour evoke a sense of affluence within the interior space. The frilled curtain near her image mirrors the curl of her hair, subtly blending her presence with the surrounding objects. A bright yellow frame, possibly gold, harmonises with the yellow fruit in the composition. Red apples and cherries in the bottom right corner add a vibrant splash of colour. The blue stripes on the wall anchor the colour palette, while the partially visible jug hints at a narrative extending beyond the frame.
