Curatorial RemarksThis is the composition drawing for the right side of the triptych at the Washington National Cathedral. The Brandywine River Museum holds a lantern slide (NCW.95.1825.32) probably made from this drawing, used in the transfer of the image from paper to panel. NCW 1864 is the same design in watercolor.
