"Hi Ellen, Thanks for your comment--we love hearing from artists! We rotated the image; it will be uploaded to the system soon (you may need to hit refresh/F5 to get the correction). How did this happen? Well, it's a big painting, so when it was shot, it was placed on its side--you can see the easel in the negative. Years later, when the negative was digitized, that rotation wasn't corrected. Thanks for your help and for giving me an excuse to go upstairs and look at some art! Deborah"

"I'm the artist and the painting is sideways. Should be rotated 90 degrees CCW. OOPS! Ellen Phelan"

"Hi spiceytaco -- It's a really big painting and it is hard to see much from a small image. And a color image would be great. It takes time and effort to get the work to the studio for new photography, so when we have a b/w negative, we're providing a scan. Please stay tuned! As to why it's so small: we're working on a popup that'll let people know why we don't always provide a fullsize image. When an artwork (like this one) is protected by copyright, we can only show a thumbnail. We're working on contacting artists and their estates to get permission to do more. "
