Whaam diptych by Roy Lichtenstein

This diptych of two powerful prints are based on an image from All American Men of War, published by DC comics in 1962. Very early on, Lichtenstein embarked on his comic book subject matter, giving his art its distinctive style that translates efficient designs created for the page on to the generous scale of American abstract art. Throughout the 196s he drew on commercial art sources; attracted by the way emotional subject matter could be depicted using detached techniques.
