Roy Lichtenstein

Greene Street Mural (Study)
c. 1983

A panoramic sketch on yellowed paper featuring a series of abstract and geometric designs, with a prominent red smear on the left side. The drawing includes various shapes and patterns, such as triangles, wavy lines, and circles, as well as a stylized depiction of a figure with a spiral form and a face in profile towards the right end. The artwork is segmented into panels by vertical fold lines, suggesting it may have been folded or intended as a continuous design.
