Historical Description

Roy Lichtenstein’s, La Sortie (State), 1996, reimagines a moment of transition through the clean, stylized precision of Pop Art. Using bold outlines, balanced geometry, and refined graphic textures, Lichtenstein distills the scene into a modern interplay of form and movement. The composition emphasizes clarity and rhythm, transforming the act of departure into a striking visual motif. Polished, dynamic, and thoughtfully composed, La Sortie (State) highlights Lichtenstein’s late-career mastery of turning everyday moments into elegant, contemporary art.

Created in 1996, this Lichtenstein pop art Woodcut in colors is hand-signed by Roy Lichtenstein (New York, 1923 – New York, 1997) in pencil: ‘rf Lichtenstein’.  Numbered from the edition of 10, this work is published by Original Editions, New York.
