About Woman With Peanuts
Woman With Peanuts is a perfectly demonstrable example of Lichtenstein’s ingenious method of creation. The woman herself is unique in her existence, a composite archetype. Above, her agreeable smile sits below her well-coiffed hair, a relic of 1950s suburbia, in addition to fabulous shades of red in her lips, eyes, nose, and chin. Her head is a discrete piece of the puzzle, coming from a single source. Yet her hat is from another place altogether: a pastiche of Lichtenstein’s favorite visual motifs at the time, its synthetic nature a combination of a policeman’s hat and a chef’s toque, even evoking a brilliant cut diamond.
