Roy Lichtenstein Mirror: is a body of work created in the early 1970s by American Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein. In this series, Lichtenstein explores the idea of reflection and perception by depicting mirrors, objects that usually reflect reality, without showing any reflected image. Using his signature Ben Day dots, bold lines, and simplified geometric forms, he turns the mirror into an abstract study of surface, light, and illusion. The Mirror Series reflects Lichtenstein’s fascination with everyday objects and his ability to question visual conventions through clarity, humor, and conceptual precision.
