Roy lichtenstein (1923 - 1997) red barn 1, limited edition. Lithograph signed in the plate, numbered 60 by 150. Published by castelli graphics new york (in operation from 1969 to 1997), stamp on the back. Printed by styria studio ny, dry stamp. Painted in 1969, the original work was sold for $4.4 million at christie's in october 2020. In no other painting has lichtenstein been as innovative as in his landscape paintings. The artist transcribes light and form through his own visual language, creating the impression of a landscape in a remarkably minimal way. This is all the art of lichtenstein. That the artist is able to construct a recognizable image from three simple shots demonstrates his in-depth knowledge of how we look at and decode images.
