Leda and the Swan 1968

"Leda and the Swan" (1968) is a bold and graphic artwork by Pop Art master Roy Lichtenstein. The piece exemplifies his signature style, employing Ben-Day dots and thick black outlines to create a vibrant and simplified representation of the classical myth. The composition is dominated by bold colors and geometric shapes, showcasing the artist's interest in mass-produced imagery and everyday objects. Lichtenstein's playful take on the traditional subject matter of Leda and the Swan further exemplifies the Pop Art movement's subversion of high art with themes from popular culture.
