Jack’s painting of Flag Day in Edgewater greets visitors to the Ocean-Monmouth DEA office. Flag Day this year was Tuesday, June 14, 2022.
DICK HYMAN, IVAN DAVIS AND MAURICE PERESS: “Whispering.” From The Birth of Rhapsody in Blue. Paul Whiteman’s Historic Aeolian Hall Concert of 1924. Aeolian Hall was a 1100 seat concert venue in mid-town Manhattan. It closed in 1926.
Just thinking that Jack included some whimsical items that are now gone. I have been in town since 1984 and the Lady of Victory was not there. The small birds on the lawn bring a softness to the painting. One of my favorite paintings of Jack’s.
