Roy Fox Lichtenstein was an American pop artist. During the 1960s he became a leading figure in the new art movement, defining pop art through parody. Inspired by the comic strip, Lichtenstein produced precise compositions that documented while they parodied, often in a tongue-in-cheek manner. His work was influenced by popular advertising and the comic book style.
