    “When we think of still lifes, we think of paintings that have a certain atmosphere or ambience. My still life paintings have none of those qualities, they just have pictures of certain things that are in a still life, like lemons and grapefruits and so forth. It’s not meant to have the usual still life meaning".

    Lichtenstein explored still life subjects in his early Pop prints and painting, such as the print Sandwich and Soda and the painting Turkey (both created in 1964). It was during the mid-seventies when Lichtenstein exclusively explored still life as a subject in a variety of works - Still Life with Picasso (1973) and Untitled (Still Life with Lemon and Glass) (1974) - often incorporating the term Still Life in the title of these works, which suggests a self-aware wry and satirical note. 

    Executed in lithography and screenprint at Styria Studio in New York, the prints in the Six Still Lifes series presented a ‘capsule summary’ of the still life subject by bringing together a range of still life ‘types’: from objets d’art (Still Life with Figurine) to food (Yellow Still Life) to a thematic arrangement of objects (Still Life with Lobster). 

    Lichtenstein commented “When we think of still lifes, we think of paintings that have a certain atmosphere or ambience. My still life paintings have none of those qualities, they just have pictures of certain things that are in a still life, like lemons and grapefruits and so forth. It’s not meant to have the usual still life meaning”.
