Roy Lichtenstein’s Bewitching Seductress

New York | May 2017

Roy Lichtenstein’s Bewitching Seductress

A vision of exquisite beauty and devastating allure, Roy Lichtenstein’s ‘Nude Sunbathing’ embodies the essence of confident female sensuality. The work is one of Lichtenstein’s greatest contributions to art history’s most celebrated subject: the female nude. Executed in 1995, 'Nude Sunbathing' is a major highlight of Sotheby’s Contemporary Evening sale on 16 May in New York.
