About Gun Roy Lichtenstein
Roy Lichtenstein’s print of a smoking gun was a response to the lack of American gun control. 1968 is considered one of, if not the most, transformative years in American history. It’s a year characterized by excessive violence, tension, and fear. In 1968, America hardly had time to recover from the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr when presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy was gunned down two months later. Like his brother John, who had been tragically assassinated five years earlier, Robert F. Kennedy was an advocate for better gun control.
