In these works he used the Benday dot, common to newspaper and magazine reproduction, to produce works that appeared mechanically reproduced, and which in fact are even more stylised than the cartoons Lichtenstein appropriated. He came to prominence in the 1960s, making works based on imagery from comic strips, such as In the Car and Whaam! 1963 (Tate T00897). Lichtenstein was born in New York, and was a central player in American pop art. However, the Water Lilies series can also be related to Lichtenstein’s preoccupation with reflections, the roots of which can be found in his early pop art works, and which he developed throughout his career, most notably in the Mirror paintings made between 19 and which continued in the Reflection series of paintings and prints in the early 1990s (see the series of Reflections prints ). Lichtenstein made numerous paintings and prints based on the work of other artists, including Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse, and had first made works that paid homage to Monet in 1969, with a series of prints after the French painter’s Cathedral and Haystack series (see Tate P07407– P07413). Although not apparent in photographs, the images transmogrify – reflecting the light and colour of the room they occupy, shifting and changing as the prints are viewed from different angles. Lichtenstein designed all of the original frames. Sign painter’s enamel was screenprinted on the metal to build a surface of colour that is collage-like in appearance. Production of the pattern was labour intensive, as each swirl was executed individually. At Saff Tech, a method was developed to create the swirls, using a drill press fitted with a rubber end and suspended upside down from the ceiling. The swirl patterns in the metal dashboards that Lichtenstein remembered from the automobiles of the 1920s and 1930s had been a longtime interest of his, but one that had not found expression until the Saff Tech Arts project. As Mary Lee Corlett noted in the catalogue raisonné: These works are a highly accomplished and innovative form of printmaking on stainless steel, and involved the development of a new technique in order to achieve a particular pattern on the metal. Tate’s copies are from the set of artist’s proofs aside from the edition of twenty-three, and are recorded in the catalogue raisonné of the artist’s prints (Corlett 1994, pp.241–2). Lichtenstein collaborated with Donald Saff at Saff Tech Arts in Oxford, Maryland to produce the prints. Two others from the series are also in Tate’s collection: Water Lilies with Japanese Bridge 1992 (Tate AL00373) and Water Lilies with Cloud 1992 (Tate AL00372). Water Lily Pond with Reflections 1992 is one of a series of six screenprints on stainless steel that Lichtenstein made on the subject of water lilies, a series which pays homage to Claude Monet’s (1840–1926) ‘Nymphéas’ paintings of water lilies (see, for example, Water Lilies after 1916 ).
