Lead is a bit short. Surely it can be expanded on further?

It once set a record auction price for a painting by a living American artist. --> For how much?

Big Painting No. 6 is in the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen collection in Düsseldorf. --> Unsourced

I see no other issues with the article. It is well referenced and written.

All issues addressed. Passing the article! Statυs (talk) 16:59, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Way too much copyrighted material in the footnotes. No excuse for this. Editor should have used his own words. MathewTownsend (talk) 23:39, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removed non-free image by Dick Giordano[edit]

This image by Dick Giordano is not discussed in the text. It is merely mentioned. There is no explanation as to exactly how this image relates to Big Painting No.6 in the text as required by the non-free image rationale. It is a serious issue for wikipedia to replication another's copyrighted work without a proper rationale. And it is especially serious as this work by Dick Giodonao was originally in five articles on specific works by Roy Lichtenstein. (now down to three articles on a work by Lichtenstein) MathewTownsend (talk) 18:48, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

suggest merge[edit]
