Sunrise: Separation Drawing for Red 1965

"Sunrise: Separation Drawing for Red" (1965) is a preparatory drawing by Roy Lichtenstein, renowned for his Pop Art style. This drawing, characteristic of his process, serves as a blueprint for a larger artwork. The stark black and white composition features a black-and-white dotted line, seemingly representing the horizon, and a series of wavy black lines, mimicking a sunrise or perhaps a landscape. This minimal but impactful drawing showcases the artistic process behind the vibrant and iconic paintings of Lichtenstein.
