Below is a quote in white. "have we already gone to far in this search for peace thorugh the accumlation of peril? is there any way to halt this trent - or must we push on with new devices until we inevitably come to judgement before the atom? General Omar N. Bradley, 1957." The bottom has "Art for a Nuclear Weapons Freeze/ An exhibition and auction" in large red lettering. [This was a national traveling exhibition and benefit auction in eight cities for the National Nuclear Weapons Freeze Campaign. The show was organized by Michael Mazur, Judith Goldman, and Barbara Krakow. The Stuart Davis piece, a 1936 gouache called ''Artists Against War and Fascism,'' was presented by organizers of the show as one of Davis's few explicit antiwar works. -LMC]
