This painting was a near duplicate of an earlier unfinished painting I began in egg tempera while attending the Hartford Art School/University of Hartford. When I transferred to SUC New Paltz, NY in the Spring 1974 semester, the unfinished egg tempera painting was somehow lost in the move. Because I still had an interest in the original composition, I did it again in acrylic polymer, using the same painting techniques as the earlier egg tempera.
