La Cigale (1981) de Jasper Johns est une lithographie en couleur publiée par Gemini G.E.L. dans une édition de 58 exemplaires. Le titre évoque l'émergence cyclique de l'insecte, faisant écho à l'intérêt de Johns pour la récurrence et la transformation.





Créée pendant sa période "crosshatch" (1972-83), l'œuvre illustre son passage des drapeaux et des cibles à des systèmes abstraits de création de marques. Grâce à des couches de couleur et de texture, Johns explore les possibilités de la lithographie en tant que support de répétition et de variation.





Impressions of Cicada fait partie des collections du Museum of Modern Art et du Whitney Museum of American Art, ce qui souligne l'importance de cette œuvre dans la pratique de l'estampe de Johns.
