Drowning Girl 1963

Roy Lichtenstein's "Drowning Girl" (1963) is a prime example of Pop Art, a movement that emerged in the 1960s. The painting is a close-up of a woman's face, with exaggerated features, large, bold outlines, and bright colors, directly referencing comic book art. The woman's expression of despair and the speech bubble containing the text "I don't care!... I'd rather sink... than call Brad for help!" further emphasize the Pop Art theme of mass media and popular culture.
