With a label from Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts (later the Columbus Museum of Art) affixed along the verso. This painting is characteristic of his abstract works of the early 1960s which moved from figural to more loose handling of the paint. It was at this time that his paintings began to grow in size as well, sometimes reaching sizes of 25 feet in length.
