THIS PAINTING IN THE GALLERY COLLECTION AND NOT FOR SALE AT THIS TIME.
After McCloy completed his military service in 1945, he returned to teach at the University of Wisconsin (1946-1948). This painting was completed at that time - upon McCloy's return from war, and a stark and dramatic change of direction from his pre-war, mild, and comfortable, regionalist subjects.
Bright, powerful, encaustic painting on masonite with thin lattice frame.
Signed - initials WM in painting lower right.
Slater Museum Label verso.
Deaccessioned from Slater Museum, Norwich CT in Oct 2008. (what were they thinking?).
