  1. Your first picture is titled ‘Fallen Angels’ and can be found in the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha. Certainly not ‘wandering around… but not in trouble yet’. The dark mood and entwining serpents would suggest that trouble is well and truly in the rear view mirror.

    1. Thank you! I fixed the description, as much as the software will allow as something posted that far back it won’t let you edit much which is why the link to it at the Joslyn does not appear. Sarah B. Guest Perry.
