"Here is a perfect example of a typical southern portrayal of a young boy in the 1960's. Barefoot, he is dressed in velvet 'Little Lord Fauntleroy' attire and formally positioned on a beautiful antique chair. This subject lived in Atlanta, Georgia and the chair and its tapestry had familial sentiment. The whole of the parts of this painting made it a symbolic and meaningful portrait. Not only is everything important in its message but I think it makes for a very interesting background with a solid composition. This was commissioned by this young model's grandmother." A.B.
