Roy Lichtenstein Still Life with Portrait (C.131) 1974 For Sale

In contrast to the jumbled disorder of the previous print in Roy Lichtenstein’s Six Still Lifes series, Still Life with Portrait is a controlled composition with a balance of proportions. Made from lithograph and screenprint with debossing on BFK Rives paper, it is from an edition of 100 and signed, dated and numbered.

On the right side of the print is a framed picture of a woman hanging on a wall. In the domestic setting, the formality of the headshot suggests it is likely to be a family photo, rather than the comic-book style women depicted elsewhere in Lichtenstein’s artworks. The pearls on her neck, coiffed hair and refined demeanour suggest an affluence amid the interior setting. The frilled edge of the curtain nearby echoes the curled wave of the lady’s hair, suggesting a morphing between the woman and her material objects.  

The bright yellow border of the frame, possibly gold, blends with the yellow fruit, whilst the red apple and cherries seen in the bottom right hand corner inject an additional pop of colour. The blue strips seen on the wall anchors the palette of the composition, whilst the partially-visible jug suggests there is a scene that continues out of the frame.
