Roy Lichtenstein‘s Picture and Pitcher (1977) is a significant sculpture from his late 1970s body of work, marking his extension of Pop Art principles into three-dimensional form. This piece is a freestanding painted bronze sculpture (with some versions in painted aluminum for prototypes), measuring roughly 95–96 inches tall × 40 inches wide × 23–24 inches deep (about 242 × 102 × 62 cm). It was conceived in 1977, with the main casts fabricated in 1978. It belongs to a series of approximately 20 freestanding sculptures Lichtenstein created between 1977 and 1980. These works translate his signature flat, comic-book-derived style into sculpture, focusing on classic art-historical subjects—especially still life motifs—but rendered in his instantly recognizable way: bold black outlines, Ben-Day dots, primary colors, and simplified, graphic shapes that mimic commercial printing techniques. The work is part of the Margulies Collection and currently featured in the Pop Art exhibition at The Margulies Collection at the Warehouse in Miami (until April 4, 2026).
