NEW YORK—A group of drawings by the Pop artist, who died in 1997, will become part of the museum's collection, according to a report by
Carol Vogel in
The New York Times. "Thirteen drawings by
Roy Lichtenstein have been given to the
National Gallery of Art in Washington by Lichtenstein's widow, Dorothy; his sons, David and Mitchell; and the
Roy Lichtenstein Foundation in memory of
Jane Meyerhoff, the Maryland collector who died in October. The drawings are all studies for paintings by Lichtenstein, the Pop artist, that were promised to the Gallery in 1987 by Meyerhoff and her husband, Robert."
