Curatorial RemarksThis illustration is described as a "Wash" with no indication of the support (Brandywine River Museum, Scribner's archive, #29969). Since Scribner's generally sold Wyeth's color oil canvases for $100 - $200, the $20 "for sale" price is suggestive of the image's importance and size.
