In the lower-left corner, a circular stamp-like form bears a faint portrait, lending the work a sense of nostalgia or reflection. The piece also features a tag labeled 'Souvenir' and other textual elements that enhance its layered meaning. This lithograph, printed on Angoumois à la main paper, is part of a limited edition of 63, signed and numbered by the artist, reflecting Johns’ interest in memory and repetition.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
