Drowning Girl - Roy Lichtenstein, 1963

Things to think about when studying:

What were the dots that Lichtenstein used called?

What movement is this work from?

Imperial Red Cross Easter Egg - Henrik Wigström for Fabergé, 1915.

This enameled silver egg was presented to his mother, the Dowager Empress Marie, by Tsar Nicholas II as an Easter present in 1915; the Dowager Empress was head of the Russian branch of the Red Cross. Upon the outbreak of World War I the Imperial palaces were converted to hospitals in which five members of the Tsar’s family served as nurses. The egg holds a gold and mother-of-pearl screen containing their portraits painted on ivory (from left to right, second photo): Nicholas’ sister Olga, his daughter Olga, his wife Alexandra, his daughter Tatiana, and his first cousin Marie.
