Moonscape is Lichtenstein's second print on Rowlux and his first on blue Rowlux, though he also utilized white, black and translucent Rowlux as well as plastic and foil in his mixed-media prints throughout the late 1960s. As a result of his first Rowlux landscapes, which are not derived from any printed source but rather invented, Lichtenstein was commissioned by Leo Castelli to create Ten Landscapes in 1967, his first solo print portfolio. Corlett 37.
