Look Mickey, 1961 is a beautiful high quality art print of an original work by pop artist Roy Lichtenstein. Look Mickey was the first work Roy Lichtenstein created using an image from popular culture. It comes from the children’s book Donald Duck Lost and Found. In the image, Disney icons Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse stand on a pier. Staring at the water, fishing pole raised above his head, Donald thinks he has caught a fish when he has actually snagged his own coattail. Behind him stands Mickey, stifling a giggle at his friend’s mistake. The text, “LOOK MICKEY, I’VE HOOKED A BIG ONE,” mockingly hangs over Donald’s unsuspecting head.
