    NOTE:
    Hoyt L. Sherman (1903-1981) was an American artist and professor. He is widely credited with having a serious influence on the work of Roy Lichtenstein, who was a student of his during the forties. Lichtenstein credits his teacher and mentor at Ohio State University for introducing him to the science of perception and encouraging him to merge science with aesthetics. Hoyt was the source of Lichtenstein's conception of compositional unity.
    In 1963 Sherman received the Alumni Award for Distinguished Teaching from the Ohio State University. A building in his name, The Hoyt L. Sherman Studio Art Center, was endowed by Roy Lichtenstein in the 1990s.
    This lot is registered at the Lichtenstein Foundation under RL4715. We want to thank the Lichtenstein Foundation for the additional information.
