Photo says this piece was destroyed. This was likely in 1944 when FS slashed nearly 100 pieces. With no place to store them and his parents moving from his family home in Kansas City he ripped them with a knife and saved the stretcher bars for future use. I would love to discover the color photo of this piece, but I don't imagine that will ever happen.

Subject Matter: Scene with figures
Current Location: Destroyed
