Historical Description

Roy Lichtenstein, The Oval Office, 1992, reimagines one of America’s most symbolic interiors through his unmistakable Pop Art lens. The seat of power becomes a stage of stylized order — rendered with bold outlines, flat planes of color, and the precise rhythm of Ben-Day dots. Every element, from the draped curtains to the presidential desk, is distilled into a graphic language that balances authority with artifice. Lichtenstein transforms the political into the pictorial, suggesting both reverence and critique in his depiction of national imagery. With its crisp symmetry and detached clarity, The Oval Office stands as a witty, polished reflection on image, symbolism, and the constructed grandeur of power.

Created in 1992, this Lichtenstein pop art Screenprint  in colors is hand-signed by Roy Lichtenstein (New York, 1923 – New York, 1997) in pencil: ‘rf Lichtenstein’.  Numbered from the edition of 175, this work is published by Original Editions, New York.
