Meaning & Analysis

Foot And Hand is bold and intense, delivering a subtle blow to the traditional artistic legacies of the 20th century. Lichtenstein’s print reintroduces a discredited mode of representation, thereby shaping the creative dialogues and aesthetic conventions of the 1960s. The artist manufactures a clinically precise and universally recognisable picture, using the commercial instruments of mass-printing.This slick lithograph confronts the beholder with the very essence of Pop Art.

Foot And Hand is a dynamic artwork that relies on its figurative visual language. Lichtenstein captures the moment in which a booted foot stomps on a hand reaching for a gun. The colour palette is scarce but strong, while the minimal shading evokes a flattened surface appearance. Lichtenstein applies simple black outlines and Ben Day dots to delimit the volume and dimension of his shapes. The figures are closely cropped, tempting the viewer to step into the place of one of the characters, assuming roles and motives.

  • Roy Lichtenstein, born in New York, 1923, is a seminal figure in the Pop Art movement, renowned for his comic book and advertisement-inspired artworks. His transformative journey from classical painter to Pop Art pioneer began with his iconic piece, Look Mickey, marking the fusion of painting with pop culture. Lichtenstein’s works, including Whaam!, Drowning Girl, and Crying Girl, blend parody and satire, challenging the boundaries between popular culture and ‘high art’. With over 5,000 pieces to his name, Lichtenstein’s enduring influence resonates in contemporary art, his works celebrated in prestigious institutions worldwide.
