Roy Lichtenstein’s, Head with Feathers and Braid, 1980, blends stylized portraiture with the bold, graphic clarity that defines his Pop Art language. Using strong outlines, rhythmic patterns, and refined blocks of color, Lichtenstein transforms the figure into a modern, iconic image. The composition highlights the interplay between adornment, identity, and design, presenting the feathers and braid as striking visual elements rather than traditional motifs. Elegant, contemporary, and thoughtfully composed, Head with Feathers and Braid reflects Lichtenstein’s continued exploration of form and cultural symbolism in a fresh, polished style.

Created in 1980, this Lichtenstein pop art Etching in colors is hand-signed by Roy Lichtenstein (New York, 1923 – New York, 1997) in pencil: ‘rf Lichtenstein’.  Numbered from the edition of 32, this work is published by Original Editions, New York.
