Gallery label text 2013:
“When we think of a still life, we think of paintings that have a certain atmosphere or ambience. My still life paintings have none of those qualities, they just have pictures of certain things that are in a still life, like lemons and grapefruits and so forth. I’m never drawing the object itself; I’m only drawing a depiction of the object – a kind of crystallized symbol of it. It's not meant to have the usual still life meaning.”
- Roy Lichtenstein
