COMMENTS
”The Bride and The Suitor were drawn on the same stone, pulled on one sheet of paper, then cut apart to be hung on the right and left of The Advocate. This created a triptych above which The Dreamers would be hung horizontally. All four figures are based on the same module, varied in each case to emphasize the character depicted. The Bride, as female, employs two X chromosomes.”
