About This Item

[Np: The Artist, ca. 1962].. Original watercolor on paper (13.5 x 8"; 345 x 200 mm). Signed by the artist in the left lower corner, and captioned in pencil on verso. About fine. A close-up full-body rendering of a pangolin next to a waterhole, with a suggestion of its focusing on its own reflection in the water. This watercolor was painted at the approximate time of Parker's work on the illustrations for the limited edition of Marianne Moore's EIGHT POEMS, published by the Museum of Modern Art. It is a much more detailed and finished piece than the drawings executed for that work.
