| Comments: | TP image from Biggs Museum; index; edit black/white neg. in files The major clue in determining that this was an alteration of another painting was in the inscription that had a second date: a ’20-‘ to the right of the ‘1920’ located under ‘Frank E. Schoonover.’ The man, the animal and some flora have been overpainted to produce a landscape. |
