Taking Liberties with Art History
I love making copies of master works. However, I donít like making verbatim copies. I have taken liberties. Picasso in Hell is a special case. It is a "copy" of a painting by Delacroix titled Dante and Virgil in Hell. I thought that theirs would be a fascinating trip and I wondered who they might meet there. Given my predilection for painters, I thought they would quite naturally meet up with Picasso.
