Encaustic, oil, and collage on fabric mounted on plywood, three panels, 42 1/4 × 60 5/8” (107.3 × 153.8 cm). Johns’ iconic painting of the American flag, blurring the boundary between representation and object. The warm, textured encaustic surface — with newspaper visible beneath — transformed a familiar symbol into something simultaneously abstract and concrete, heralding Pop Art.
