Storm King Roy Lichtenstein-Mermaid

Roy Lichtenstein, whose flat, bold paintings derived from comic strips became some of the best-known works of Pop art in the 1960s, designed a painting of a mermaid to grace the side of a functioning sailboat. Following Lichtenstein’s plan, students from the Rhode Island School of Design painted the boat, Young America, which then raced in the 1995 America’s Cup.
