Item Description:
A mixed media collage that includes a Greek stamp, a thin vertical strip of paper with a leaf design, and a bar of hotel soap tied in blue twine with its ends stretched out and glued to a sheet of white paper. The horizontal twine is superimposed over the leaf-patterned paper to form a cross. Near the top of the white paper, text stamped in red reads “May 16, 1991 E” and “Antonakos.”
