Sargent ended
up doing two versions of this composition, although both are of
significantly different mediums. The first (featured above) was part of
a base Bas-Relief for the Rotunda and was of raised painted plaster.
The second (Thumbnail below) was later created for the Stairway Ceiling
Decorations and was oil on canvas.
