"Stretcher Frame" is a 1965 work by American Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein. This painting is known for its simple composition and bold colors, as well as the use of the Ben-Day dot technique, which Lichtenstein borrowed from comic books. The grid of black dots, representing the canvas, is encased in a yellow frame, emphasizing the stretcher bars that give the canvas its form. This work is representative of Lichtenstein's fascination with the visual language of popular culture, and his desire to elevate it to the level of fine art.
