Large Painting No. 6 (sometimes Large Painting or Large Painting VI) is a 1965 oil and Magna on canvas painting by Roy Lichtenstein. Measuring 235 cm × 330 cm, it is part of the Brushstrokes series of artworks, which includes several paintings and sculptures depicting the brushstroke actions of a house painter. As with all of his works, this is partly a satirical response to the gestural painting of Abstract Expressionism. Like most of Lichtenstein’s Ben-Day works, it is a representation of mechanical reproduction through a pictorial technique. In this case, the satire comes from the graphic representation of the spontaneous movement of the painting in the smallest details. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
