General Notes

Note

The painting was done by Vernon Lobb around 1959. It was of the area between OxBow and Lake Michigan. At that time vegetation was short. 60 years later trees are much taller. He was a scholarship student and lived upstairs in the Waldorf Astoria which was the building on the waterfront. (Lagoon) The ground level was the print studio. It became a safety risk like the old gallery and was torn down. - Mike Van Ark. Status: OK Status By: Mary Voss Status Date: 2018-01-08
