Curatorial RemarksThis drawing was extended on the left side by the addition of an extra piece of paper. The extension, a piece approximately 4 inches wide, is missing approximately 5 inches from the bottom edge.
The purpose of the drawing is unclear; it probably relates to Wyeth's commercial work and thus would date from the later part of his career.
