Widely regarded as the bridge between his abstract expressionism and pop art works it is notable for its ironic humor and aesthetic value as well as being the first example of the artist's employment of Ben-Day dots speech balloons and comic imagery as a source for a painting. The painting was bequeathed to the Washington D.C. National Gallery of Art upon Lichtenstein's death. Building on his late 1950s drawings of comic strip characters Look Mickey marks Lichtenstein's first full employment of painterly techniques to reproduce almost faithful representations of pop culture and so satirize and comment upon the then developing process of mass production of visual imagery. In this Lichtenstein pioneered a motif that became influential not only in 1960s pop art but continuing to the work of artists today. Lichtenstein borrows from a Donald Duck illustrated story book showing Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck during a fishing mishap. However he makes significant alterations to the original source including modifying the color scheme and perspective while seeming to make statements about himself. The painting is one of Lichtenstein's first non-expressionist works and marks his initial employment of Ben-Day dots which he used to give it an "industrial" half-tone effect. The painting is his first use both of a speech balloon and comics as source material. The work has visible pencil marks and was produced using a plastic-bristle dog brush to apply the oil paint onto the canvas. By the time of his death Look Mickey was regarded as Lichtenstein's breakthrough work; The large scale reproduction of a comic strip frame was considered radical and revolutionary at the time"; Original Art ROY LICHTENSTEIN Paintings have a Value of approx. between $20 Million to $95 Million each range Donald Duck Mickey Mouse and Goofy on Tom Sawyers Island a notable Disneyland and Disney World attraction with Castle Rock Fort Wilderness; The Duckapoo INDIANS adopted Donald Duck into their Tribe and made him a BIG CHIEF; RARE TITLE due to High Collectible Demand and Very Low Supply; Image of Original CATFISH COVE Page from Little Golden Book #D86 included in Listing; Image of LOOK MICKEY! by ROY LICHTENSTEIN included in Listing for Reference and Comparison Purposes; Minor Staining on "Catfish Cove" page Minor Rubbing Wear to Back Cover.
