Private dealer Nikolaus Leskovar, through Leskovar Fine Art, has amassed a significant collection of works by Pop art pioneer Roy Lichtenstein (1923–1997), including pieces such as *I Love Liberty* (1982), *Modern Print* (1971), and *Still Life with Red Jar* (1994). The article highlights Leskovar's admiration for Lichtenstein's ability to blend comic strip aesthetics with high art, and notes that the gallery offers both iconic and lesser-known compositions for collectors. Market data from the Artnet Price Database shows that Lichtenstein print sales rose 16% in 2024 to $11.6 million, with average sale prices increasing 17% to $44,000, partly driven by strong demand for his 1994 nude series—exemplified by *Roommates* selling for $1.2 million at Sotheby's in November 2024.
